We can find our own shadows on each other, scarred and bloody, I may have experienced the sorrow and grievance you endured, so I want to announce the truth to everyone. Return your innocence, and return my peace of mind.
summary of the story:
19 years ago, high school student Warren went to jail for being accused of killing a former Stanford professor. At that time, the former New York Times reporter Bobby, who became famous for reporting this incident, discovered the murder he had reported 19 years ago. In fact, there is another hidden story. The eyewitness who testified against the murderer, one of the twin daughters of the victim, Renee seemed to have lied back then. This made Bobby's conscience uneasy, so she contacted Warren's mother who was suffering from cancer, and wanted to reconnect with Warren in prison to find out the truth about the case.
So, what is the truth?
The truth is so bitter, it's not at all pleasing.
The murderer is indeed not Warren. He used to enter the victim’s house illegally, just to take a peek at his daughter Renee’s diary. It’s a ridiculous teenage romance. We can talk to Renee since Warren’s adulthood. It can be seen that he had a crush on Renee back then, and Renee also wrote him a love letter, wanting to escape everything from reality. At that time, Renee had been sexually assaulted by her biological father (that is, the victim) for a long time. On the night Renee's father was murdered, he once again forced Renee, but the movement was too loud to be heard by Renee's twin sister, Josie, and Josie took the murder weapon. Killed his father.
After the father's death, the sisters and mother called the police together, and the mother instigated her daughter to attribute the fault to the young Warren. What they didn't know was that the other key person who sent Warren to prison was Warren's father, a young prison guard at the time. He discovered that his wife and the victim actually had an adulterous affair, and his wife even asked for a divorce. After his son was accused of killing the "Little San", he took the lead in sending his son to prison by "justifying his relatives", and since then he has become a police chief.
Due to the large number and complexity of the series, I can't explain it clearly in a few hundred words. Friends who are interested in other details can go to Renren TV and watch it twice as fast.
Personal feelings:
This drama attracted me inexplicably, maybe half an hour before the opening, it made the audience feel that there is a shocking secret in it. However, the later it feels heavier and the ending is reversed, but there are also sorrows.
What we never know is that the truth comes at a price, and everything needs a price , but is the price worth it?
For example, does Warren's father really deserve it? He was betrayed by his wife and sent his innocent son to jail and even killed him. So his fate was suicide? Maybe this is causal reincarnation. Of course, I think his practice of sending his son as cannon fodder is very illogical, and I don’t understand the screenwriter’s intentions. Because he hates his wife’s derailment, he has to plant his own son. In the play, Warren’s father has the intention of sacrificing his son’s promotion and raising salary. Is this logic very lax, and there are too many risks involved, and the wife The derailed subject has passed away, shouldn't he return to his family and start over with his wife and son 0.0
At the same time, Bobby’s sister, Saidi, who was implicated, was arrested and searched in the police station for no reason. Can the loss be resolved with an apology?
The hostess is tough and wants to search for evidence, but what about innocent people? Isn't she hurting others right now? The key is that she has never considered for the relatives around her who have been injured by herself, so, is she the embodiment of justice?
The ending of the story is rather strange. For example, it was Josie who killed her father, but in the end they concealed the truth and pushed the blame on their mother. The mother had been killed by Renee, and Josie told the murderer of the murderer, but she herself She is also a murderer, why did she escape punishment?
At the same time, the play also spent a certain amount of time narrating the hostess’s growth environment. She was thrown into the host family by her father since she was a child, and then she witnessed the death of her mother for less than a year, and experienced the death of the host family’s hostess. It seemed to her A little learned helplessness. In the play, the heroine Bobby thinks that this is the reason why she is so persistent in this incident. She wants to save Warren, just like saving herself back then.
