"Victoria's Dream"

          In this week's episode, White Bear, the first half of the show we see Victoria, a young looking woman who is lost in her world literally. I find it weird she wakes up in a chair and then downstairs there is just a jacket and shoes set out for her. That kind of gave me an indication that something was wrong like on some Hunger Games types stuff. As soon as she stepped outside, you saw different people with phones recording and following her. Victoria came across as a dramatic woman because of the different responses she would give to the girl trying to help her. I could see where she was coming from a little. This woman had no memory of anything and didn't know anything that was going on at the time. All she really had was small snapshots of a little girl and a white man. As the film progresses, the snapshots become clearer as she encounters more people and more cameras. One thing shown more vividly was a white bear in the backseat of the car with the little girl. My first thoughts were that she did something to the white man because she kept saying that something was wrong with WHITE BEAR. In the end they show that it was all a set up and this woman was actually a criminal. Victoria was found guilty of kidnapping the little girl and recording her husband (the white man) torturing and killing the little girl and also setting her body on fire. Her punishment is to go through sort of the same thing. They erase her memory every night so that she relives this everyday. So far she has been going through it for 18 days straight. I feel that this is justice. This woman kidnapped a girl and recorded her being killed. I'm sure the little girl was confused and scared being in the hands of strangers and one has a camera in her face. Victoria got exactly what she deserved. Only thing I wish they would've changed is that they didn't erase her memory. She needed to remember what she did and how she was punished for it to show that she was wrong.

I understand that you feel like Victoria deserved to be tortured the way she was but she did not commit the crime. Her fiancé killed the child, yes she was an accessory to murder. but she did not kill. I disagree with you on the point that she deserved to be tortured.I do not think she deserved to be tortured to the extent that she was.
