Part 8/11:
As law enforcement arrives, complicating their situation, suspicion grows undeterred. Ben’s lie about dozing off while driving becomes an alibi riddled with holes. V, sensing the tightening noose of their deception, grows anxious as she uncovers pictures of them that raise more questions than answers. As tensions escalate, V's mental and emotional state crumbles under the pressure, leading to a physical and moral decline.
The drama crescendos dramatically with the threat of physical violence culminating in tragic confrontation when Ben mistakenly believes he has killed Alex. Unable to bear the moral weight of their lies, V urges Ben to confess—yet he, burdened by past traumas and fears, is reluctant.
