The focus of this drama is not on the truth at all, but on human nature... A series of emotions such as guilt, justice, sympathy, and calf protection are projected on everyone.
At the end, a large number of barrages scolded Laurel, but I can understand her inner fear and anxiety. From learning that her husband's family has violent genes, to recalling Jacob's violent tendencies as a child, everything has thrown Laurel violently out of her previous "ivory tower" life. Various cognitions made her suspicious, but as a mother, it seemed that she was incompetent without unconditional trust. Coupled with seeing the collapse of Ben's parents, conflicting feelings collided in her heart.
The conflict urgently needs an outlet, and that is to die with his son. Then there will be no doubts, there will be no guilt, there will be nothing. Does Laurel need the truth? All she needs is a unity, a certainty, a belief.
From the initial defense of Jacob as a non-murderer, to the final defense of whether he was murdered on purpose, it's quite the point... this show is great. Going to read the original.
