Season 2, Episode 5
8/10
Interesting take on real life situations
14 February 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I wasn't expecting too much when I started it when I immediately recognized the storyline being similar to the Poppy drama from YouTube. However, they not only delved into the mind of somehow who got out of an abusive relationship but also someone in one. I liked the escalation of an abuser taunting and attempting to control someone who wanted to escape them to him having a murderous breakdown. I also enjoyed the cinematography and editing, the way the playlist was used to show flashbacks of the abuser's escalation in the relationships and Valentine's journey through the toxic relationship to the current situation was a fun way to see the background of the situation. It's almost a dark comedy in the way that Royal and Treazure act, mostly on Royal, but they do focus more on the drama part. It does lack a bit on the story but the editing and cinematography really help in making it a fun watch.
