As a movie reviewer, I found myself immersed in the gripping tale that unfolds in the second episode of Black Mirror Season 7, titled “Bete Noire.” The narrative revolves around two intriguing characters, Maria and Verity, who share a past as former high school classmates. While Maria enjoyed popular status, Verity was often bullied and the subject of a malicious rumor about an affair with one of their teachers. Their lives diverged for several years until fate contrived to bring them back together, this time under a cloud of tension, suspicion, and unresolved history.
At first glance, their reunion seemed innocuous, but as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Maria would soon face devastating consequences. Let’s delve into how “Bete Noire” concludes.
