The sixth episode of this season is a season with a very unique style. It is not too dark, too pretentious, too pretentious, too moral and preaching, but very classic. It has an eschatological complex, a reflection on human nature, and an open ending.
Putting away the cloak of technology, the sixth episode attempts to reveal multiple aspects of power. Many people may be mainly concerned about its accusations of cyberbullying and the promotion of cyberbullying by technology itself. But the open ending gives us another perspective to examine power, that is, who has the power to punish "ugly people"? The protagonist's concept of this issue has undergone a major change from the beginning to the end. At the beginning, the female protagonist encouraged the second female to join the government to fight crimes, but at the end the female second sent her a "got him" text message, but the female protagonist deleted the information. It can be seen that the two have decided to deal with the criminals privately and hide the information. , Do not report to courts and government departments. This is a fundamental change in the protagonist's worldview. Who has the power to punish "ugly people"? At the beginning of the film, the answer given by the hostess may be the police station, the authentication section, and the court. But at the end of the film, the answer given by the heroine is herself.
Interestingly, the "great villain" in this episode, the cross-dressed man who has a "god plot" and wants to bring a "flood" to clean up the world, also feels that he has the power to punish the "ugly people". The protagonist’s view of justice and power overlapped with the villain to some extent in the end.
Why the protagonist didn't directly turn the villain to the court? I didn't understand it at first, but after thinking about it, this may also explain why the film is an open ending, rather than making the female second-hand blade villain happy. At the end of the film, the deleted text message, the open ending, tried to make us think about a problem. We know the evil of human nature, but who has the power to punish the wicked? Who has the power to judge justice? Is it someone with a sense of justice and moral law? Isn't this what the villain did?
