  1. 0:00I feel like Pavlov's dog. He somehow
  2. 0:04managed to train me to drool on his
  3. 0:08command. Hello everyone, [ __ ] here.
  4. 0:13And today I’ve brought you something
  5. 0:15terrible, very, very terrible, very
  6. 0:17disgusting. Today we are going to
  7. 0:20discuss*Does It Hurt?*by H.D. Carlton.
  8. 0:23She also gifted us*Haunting Adeline*.
  9. 0:27In some ways, this masterpiece is even
  10. 0:30worse; it’s going to hurt us all. So
  11. 0:34buckle up, grab something tasty to eat
  12. 0:36and drink, and let's get started. Just,
  13. 0:40you know, be careful with the food. I
  14. 0:42won't be renaming anyone today, because
  15. 0:44it’s hard enough as it is. From the
  16. 0:47very prologue, Carlton decides to
  17. 0:49disorient us. I don’t know, maybe
  18. 0:52it’s intentional, so we’re busy
  19. 0:54untangling sentences and not thinking
  20. 0:56about what a pile of crap this is. The
  21. 0:59second paragraph. Someone is looking at
  22. 1:02the heroine, which makes her nervous.
  23. 1:04And how could she not be nervous when
  24. 1:07the niece of my cousin’s husband is
  25. 1:10staring intently at me? Could she have
  26. 1:13made it even more convoluted? Well, you
  27. 1:15see, it’s both a book and a puzzle
  28. 1:18collection as a bonus. Two in one. But
  29. 1:20I think you’ll see throughout the
  30. 1:22review that Carlton has a habit of
  31. 1:24writing in a way that makes finding
  32. 1:26meaning almost impossible. In short, we
  33. 1:30don’t know anything yet, except that
  34. 1:32our main character, Sawyer, was
  35. 1:34planning to fly somewhere, but then
  36. 1:36someone she knew saw her. She thinks
  37. 1:40she recognized her. And so, Sawyer
  38. 1:42freaks out, runs to the counter, and
  39. 1:44buys herself a ticket to Australia.
  40. 1:47Maybe some of you remember the joke
  41. 1:49about Australia being the place where
  42. 1:51Satan keeps his pets. Well, I think
  43. 1:54even they will all go into hiding when
  44. 1:56Sawyer arrives. The first chapter
  45. 1:58begins with an incomparable sentence. "
  46. 2:01Cancer tastes like crap." This is such
  47. 2:04a creative way of saying that Sawyer
  48. 2:06lit a cigarette. This, by the way, is
  49. 2:09often found in garbage like this.
  50. 2:11I’ve noticed any mention of smoking
  51. 2:13must be accompanied by a mention of
  52. 2:15cancer. Without fail, and more likely
  53. 2:18with a whole lecture about it too.
  54. 2:21I’m not saying it’s not true. Of
  55. 2:23course, smoking is bad. But I mean
  56. 2:26it’s exaggerated, because if you’ve
  57. 2:28already put smoking into your book,
  58. 2:30like, I don’t know, for coolness or
  59. 2:32whatever, then fine, that’s just your
  60. 2:34heroine. Why accompany it with
  61. 2:37paragraphs about the dangers of smoking
  62. 2:40? We have a book here, not a warning
  63. 2:42label on a pack of cigarettes. As you
  64. 2:45can see, in this book, I’m going to
  65. 2:46be nitpicking everything. Simply
  66. 2:49because after reading it, I had to take
  67. 2:51a leave of absence and I still haven't
  68. 2:53recovered from this crap. So I’m very
  69. 2:57angry and I need to vent it somewhere.
  70. 3:00So, Sawyer is smoking on an Australian
  71. 3:03beach after sleeping with the first guy
  72. 3:05she met. I still don't know his name,
  73. 3:09but he's good-looking and that's all
  74. 3:11that matters. Well, that and his killer
  75. 3:15nicotine. His killer Nikon is headed
  76. 3:19straight to the junk pile, because the
  77. 3:22editor hung themselves after the first
  78. 3:24sentence. "What kind of cancer do you
  79. 3:27think you'll get from that?" I ask,
  80. 3:29nodding at the cigarette in his hand. "
  81. 3:32I don't know, lung cancer is too
  82. 3:35typical. Throat." Do you think you'll
  83. 3:37die? He lets out a short laugh. I hope
  84. 3:40so. This is going to get dark, but
  85. 3:42maybe we can speed up the process for
  86. 3:44Sawyer. You know, so we don't have to
  87. 3:46suffer. Page two. I can't handle this
  88. 3:48anymore. One more drag and the taste
  89. 3:51seems a bit better when you remember
  90. 3:54you're inhaling death. It all reads, to
  91. 3:58me, like the author is 14 and thinks
  92. 4:01she's just so, you know, edgy and
  93. 4:04tragic. Having parted ways with Mr.
  94. 4:07Good-Looking, Sawyer is sitting at a
  95. 4:10bus stop and some weird old guy hits on
  96. 4:12her. His name is Simon and he almost
  97. 4:15immediately offers to show her his new
  98. 4:18tattoo. I mean, in principle, a normal
  99. 4:21everyday interaction. Nothing weird at
  100. 4:23all. It's clear Sawyer didn't grow up
  101. 4:25in the post-Soviet 90s, because she
  102. 4:27agrees. And Simon shows her an
  103. 4:31inscription on his leg, to which Sawyer
  104. 4:33says, "Oh my god, I love it so much.
  105. 4:37Probably even more than my favorite toe
  106. 4:39." The level of nonsense is rising, and
  107. 4:44my patience is not. By the way, for
  108. 4:46those who are adults and drinking
  109. 4:48something strong today, I propose a
  110. 4:50bonus drinking game. Every time I
  111. 4:53mention a toe, you can take a drink.
  112. 4:56You will die. "At least Simon confirms
  113. 4:59that it's not just me who's lost my
  114. 5:01mind, because he says he doesn't really
  115. 5:03get what the toe has to do with
  116. 5:04anything, let alone a favorite one. To
  117. 5:07which she shows him her foot and says
  118. 5:10she has a very cute pinky. And why that
  119. 5:12one specifically? What's wrong with the
  120. 5:14second one? You have two of them, after
  121. 5:15all. I, by the way, don't have a
  122. 5:17favorite toe, but my favorite part of
  123. 5:20the whole body is my eyes. And I am
  124. 5:22very unhappy that once again, thanks to
  125. 5:25Carlton, I wanted to gouge them out.
  126. 5:29Simon offers to give her a tattoo too,
  127. 5:31and she agrees, deciding that getting a
  128. 5:34tattoo from a stranger at a bus stop is
  129. 5:37too good an opportunity to pass up.
  130. 5:41That’s exactly the kind of perfect
  131. 5:43spontaneity I need. Do you also need a
  132. 5:46bouquet of infections? God, what
  133. 5:48nonsense. I mean, we’re still whining
  134. 5:51about cigarettes in every single
  135. 5:53paragraph. But getting a tattoo on a
  136. 5:56dirty bench from some random old guy,
  137. 5:58that’s cool and perfectly spontaneous
  138. 6:01. It all adds up. In case any of you
  139. 6:04sold your common sense to pay for this
  140. 6:06book. I’ll say that you shouldn’t
  141. 6:08do that. Never get tattoos in
  142. 6:10unsanitary conditions or from people
  143. 6:12who don’t know what they’re doing.
  144. 6:16I think, given how common tattoos are
  145. 6:18nowadays, we sometimes forget that
  146. 6:20it’s an actual medical procedure, a
  147. 6:22surface wound that’s very easy to
  148. 6:25infect. And treating it like it's some
  149. 6:29kind of joke, something completely
  150. 6:31mundane. It’s a one-way ticket to the
  151. 6:34hospital, if not somewhere worse. Simon
  152. 6:37starts giving her the same tattoo he
  153. 6:40has on his thigh with a needle and ink,
  154. 6:42without even wiping her skin first. I
  155. 6:46mean, all the dirt and sweat that was
  156. 6:48there just gets pushed right in along
  157. 6:50with the ink. Everything is fine. But
  158. 6:53let's move on. With her new gangrene,
  159. 6:56Sawyer ends up at a bar, where we find
  160. 6:58out she's using someone else’s IDs.
  161. 7:01Spoilers ahead: to sum it up, she’s
  162. 7:04supposedly wanted in America because
  163. 7:07she did something so terrible she
  164. 7:10can’t even explain it to us. So she
  165. 7:14occasionally sleeps with guys, steals
  166. 7:17their IDs, somehow makes forgeries with
  167. 7:20her photo, and opens credit cards in
  168. 7:23their names to get by. She came to the
  169. 7:27bar to celebrate, because after a beach
  170. 7:29hookup with a stranger, she was worried
  171. 7:31she was pregnant. But the test was
  172. 7:34negative, after which she immediately
  173. 7:37rushed to get an IUD. So, let's go over
  174. 7:40that again. This person slept with a
  175. 7:44stranger without protection and now got
  176. 7:47an IUD. It's a shame they don't offer
  177. 7:50brain implants at that clinic, because
  178. 7:53an IUD won't save you from STDs.
  179. 7:56Nevertheless, a party is a party, but
  180. 7:58there's work to be done. So she sits
  181. 8:00and waits for someone to hit on her.
  182. 8:03Instead of a client of her type, like a
  183. 8:06tired man in a suit, a hot macho guy
  184. 8:09sits next to her. No, I could get
  185. 8:12pregnant just by looking at you. Go
  186. 8:15away. Well, sure, a surefire way to
  187. 8:18drive a guy away is to tell him how hot
  188. 8:21he is. I lean into him, almost pressing
  189. 8:25my nose against his muscular bicep, and
  190. 8:28inhale deeply, rolling my eyes back.
  191. 8:31You also smell good, I groan. Get away.
  192. 8:36If telling him how hot he is didn't
  193. 8:38work. Try pressing your face into him
  194. 8:41and groaning about how good he smells.
  195. 8:44That should definitely work. If even
  196. 8:47that doesn't work, you might as well
  197. 8:48take your underwear off. It’s a
  198. 8:50success. And yet they continue to drink
  199. 8:53and talk. His name is Enzo. He’s from
  200. 8:56Italy. Dark-haired, muscular, tall.
  201. 8:59Well, you know, just like any hero in a
  202. 9:01novel like this. He works with sharks.
  203. 9:09He has his own research center where he
  204. 9:12observes sharks. And of course, he
  205. 9:15swims with them, which instantly adds
  206. 9:18100 points to his danger level. My
  207. 9:21thighs had already started aching from
  208. 9:24how hard I’d been clenching them for
  209. 9:27the two hours Enzo and I were talking.
  210. 9:30Honey, save your energy, because
  211. 9:32you’ll need to clench something else
  212. 9:34soon. At one point she goes," Stop
  213. 9:36trying to get me pregnant, Enzo. We
  214. 9:39aren't even friends. "Excuse me, but
  215. 9:41what is going on with all these
  216. 9:43pregnancy mentions? This is also going
  217. 9:46into the" what the heck "pile, because
  218. 9:48I have no clue what’s happening. What
  219. 9:50do pregnancy and friends have to do
  220. 9:52with anything? Then Enzo says," Come on
  221. 9:54, I'll show you something. "The phrase
  222. 9:57that starts about nine out of ten
  223. 9:59kidnappings and murders. She agrees,
  224. 10:02but only after saying," Let me just pay
  225. 10:04the bill first. "" If you take out your
  226. 10:07money, I’ll shove it down your throat
  227. 10:10, "he warns. And his voice drops to a
  228. 10:13dangerous level. And after that, she
  229. 10:16still went with him to an unfamiliar
  230. 10:18place.
  231. 10:25But seriously, what is wrong with
  232. 10:28everyone in this book? Enzo takes her
  233. 10:31to a beautiful and, naturally, deserted
  234. 10:33waterfall, and without hesitation, he
  235. 10:35takes off his shirt and jumps into the
  236. 10:38water. He asks if she’s going to join
  237. 10:41him. To which she says," Only if you
  238. 10:44promise not to touch me. "" I promise
  239. 10:47not to do anything unless you beg me to
  240. 10:49. "I groan loudly and throw my head
  241. 10:53back. I feel both relieved and angry
  242. 10:56that he couldn't just give the promise.
  243. 11:00He’s giving me very mixed signals.
  244. 11:04Yeah, let's take a look. He spent a few
  245. 11:06hours with you at a bar. Despite your
  246. 11:11extremely weird behavior, he brought
  247. 11:14you to a deserted place, stripped down,
  248. 11:17and is now inviting you into the water
  249. 11:20while using very suggestive language:"
  250. 11:23What mixed signals! Call a team of
  251. 11:27zoologists to help you decode the
  252. 11:29situation. "And let's not forget, she
  253. 11:32has a fresh tattoo that shouldn't be
  254. 11:35submerged, especially in an unknown
  255. 11:38body of water, but who cares when a hot
  256. 11:41Italian guy is involved. Deciding to go
  257. 11:45for it, I run, curl into a ball, and
  258. 11:47splash into the water like a total dork
  259. 11:50. Most girls would probably enter the
  260. 11:54water gracefully, like in a photoshoot,
  261. 11:57but my life is too uncertain to deny
  262. 11:59myself what I really want. Ladies and
  263. 12:03gentlemen, we have another one—
  264. 12:05another" not like other girls "trope.
  265. 12:08Then it starts in the water." Do you
  266. 12:10want to know what I was thinking about
  267. 12:12you when we were at the bar? "I ask.
  268. 12:14That I could make you pregnant with
  269. 12:16just one look? that you could destroy
  270. 12:20me with just the tip," I admit, smiling
  271. 12:23. They go in circles talking about
  272. 12:28whether they will have sex, then agree
  273. 12:31that it will honestly only be this one
  274. 12:34time. I’m tired of men who don’t
  275. 12:37know what they’re doing. So kiss me
  276. 12:40first. If you don't know how to use
  277. 12:43your mouth on me, you won't be able to
  278. 12:45use your [ __ ] either. Do you want me to
  279. 12:47use my mouth on you? I can do that,
  280. 12:51baby, but you’ll be mine. But I
  281. 12:55promised not to do anything unless you
  282. 12:58begged me to. She begs, and he tastes
  283. 13:02me, drinks from me. Like a sorrowful
  284. 13:06man desperately trying to escape
  285. 13:08everything in a bottle. I’ve been
  286. 13:11trying to escape this book in a bottle
  287. 13:13for a week now, but it’s not working.
  288. 13:17"Damn," he curses, pressing against me
  289. 13:19and continuing to caress me with his
  290. 13:21fingers. Somehow I notice a puddle of
  291. 13:24fluid on his palm, but I don't care.
  292. 13:28I’m too dazed by pleasure to pay
  293. 13:30attention to anything else. And first
  294. 13:34among all reviews, squirting enters the
  295. 13:37scene. Well, that’s probably in
  296. 13:39addition to the overall nautical theme.
  297. 13:41He refuses to have vaginal sex with her
  298. 13:44because he doesn't have a condom. To
  299. 13:47which she says: "I don't want to sound
  300. 13:50weird, since we’re strangers, but
  301. 13:52I’m healthy and on birth control."
  302. 13:55And he says: "Okay, I’m healthy too."
  303. 13:57And it’s not like you’ve only known
  304. 14:00him for three hours and he could easily
  305. 14:02lie to you. Next up is the description
  306. 14:05of a monster [ __ ]. It’s not just long
  307. 14:08, it’s incredibly thick, with veins
  308. 14:11bulging along it. Absolutely not, I say
  309. 14:15, shaking my head. There is no way I
  310. 14:17would change my mind. I point a finger
  311. 14:20at it. It would puncture a lung. I have
  312. 14:23the impression that the [ __ ] in these
  313. 14:25books are getting longer every year. At
  314. 14:27this rate, all the main characters will
  315. 14:29have a third leg. But he says: "You
  316. 14:32mentioned only the tip." That’s all
  317. 14:36you’re getting. I honestly don’t
  318. 14:39know what’s with these jokes about
  319. 14:41just the tip, but okay. His promise
  320. 14:44didn't last long, because soon she was
  321. 14:47already on top of him, taking it all.
  322. 14:50Are you in pain, Bella? You’re so big
  323. 14:53. It hurts.
  324. 14:54Stop.
  325. 14:56If this man were my kingdom, I would
  326. 14:59sit on this throne for a whole eternity
  327. 15:02. The treasury of nonsense will soon
  328. 15:07overflow. My God, Enso, I’m [ __ ]
  329. 15:10again. I breathe heavily. My name and
  330. 15:13God’s name should not be in the same
  331. 15:16sentence, Bella. He growls. His voice
  332. 15:20is as hard as the rock beneath us. One
  333. 15:23is holy, the other is wicked. Guess
  334. 15:27which one is mine. In response, only a
  335. 15:33muffled moan escapes my chest as a
  336. 15:36powerful wave of orgasm washes over me.
  337. 15:40I explode, sinking my teeth into his
  338. 15:43body. The world before my eyes darkens
  339. 15:46from the wild waves surging inside me.
  340. 15:50He lifts me above him, releasing the
  341. 15:52tension, and the fluid drips onto his
  342. 15:54stomach while my body shudders in
  343. 15:57spasms. I would be ashamed if I were
  344. 16:01capable of feeling anything other than
  345. 16:04this euphoria. It’s a complete mess.
  346. 16:07The sea is restless, and I’m worried
  347. 16:10about my mental health. After the
  348. 16:13waterfall, they go back to his place,
  349. 16:16and in the morning, while he sleeps,
  350. 16:19she digs through his drawers to steal
  351. 16:22his data, then sneaks out of the house.
  352. 16:26Oh my, he gave you the miracle of
  353. 16:29squirting, and later, at her hotel, she
  354. 16:32dyes her roots while keeping the stolen
  355. 16:35gun by her side. During the 20 minutes
  356. 16:39the chemicals work their magic, I smoke
  357. 16:42another cigarette and down a quarter
  358. 16:45bottle of vodka. At least it’s not
  359. 16:48boring. Honestly though, a quarter of a
  360. 16:50bottle in 20 minutes is intense. I hope
  361. 16:54it was a small flask and not a 700ml
  362. 16:56bottle. You can tell the vodka kicked
  363. 16:59in, because she starts seeing her twin
  364. 17:01brother, Kevin, in the mirror. We
  365. 17:05don’t know anything about him yet,
  366. 17:08other than the fact that he exists, but
  367. 17:10it’s clear she hates him because she
  368. 17:13starts screaming and arguing with him,
  369. 17:15then presses the gun to her own cheek.
  370. 17:20More dark stuff, but much to my regret,
  371. 17:23she changes her mind and we have to
  372. 17:25slog through the remaining 80%of the
  373. 17:28book. Switching to Enzo. She stole my
  374. 17:33damn data. For the life of me, I can't
  375. 17:36figure out what she's planning. And my
  376. 17:39own intentions are unclear, considering
  377. 17:42I still haven't dared to block the
  378. 17:45account or call the police. What could
  379. 17:49she be planning? Maybe she stole your
  380. 17:51ID just to buy some vodka at the store.
  381. 17:54He ponders all this while getting ready
  382. 17:56to get into the water with the sharks.
  383. 17:58I’m so furious, I’m ready to charge
  384. 18:01at a two-ton animal. And though I can't
  385. 18:04guarantee a win, I’d put up one hell
  386. 18:07of a fight. The problem is, I don’t
  387. 18:10want to fight a shark. Instead, I want
  388. 18:13to strangle the little mermaid who
  389. 18:15deceived me. Only in Carlton and
  390. 18:18Douglas can the protagonists be such
  391. 18:20edgelords that they'd fight a shark
  392. 18:23like he would. He decides he’s going
  393. 18:26to find Sawyer. And so he sits on the
  394. 18:28beach, waiting for her. A woman in a
  395. 18:31blue bikini heads toward me with a
  396. 18:34bright white smile under her sun hat. "
  397. 18:37No," I snap. She freezes in her tracks.
  398. 18:41The smile melts off her face like a
  399. 18:44scoop of ice cream. God, what an alpha.
  400. 18:49The woman might have just wanted to ask
  401. 18:50for the time. He finally waited until
  402. 18:54Sawyer appeared on the beach and
  403. 18:56offered her the best day of her life.
  404. 19:00Specifically, he says: "I'll let you
  405. 19:02swim with the sharks." When she
  406. 19:05hesitates, he dares her, saying, if
  407. 19:08you're brave enough. Child's play,
  408. 19:11knickers on a clothesline. Also among
  409. 19:15his persuasive arguments: "I'll give
  410. 19:17you a kiss, a reward." Oh really, have
  411. 19:20you been dreaming of that your whole
  412. 19:22life? And what is so special about his
  413. 19:25kiss, you might ask? I don't kiss
  414. 19:28anyone. I haven't met a woman yet who
  415. 19:32deserves that level of intimacy with me
  416. 19:35. And did he really mean it that he
  417. 19:40works with sharks, and not some other
  418. 19:42profession where they don't kiss either
  419. 19:45? Despite seeing a strange spark in his
  420. 19:48eyes and knowing this is a stupid idea,
  421. 19:51she agrees to go with him, because,
  422. 19:54well, he didn't give any signs that he
  423. 19:56already knew she had robbed him.
  424. 20:00Because it doesn't look like he was
  425. 20:02specifically waiting for you to lure
  426. 20:04you into a trap at all. No, people meet
  427. 20:07completely by accident every day on
  428. 20:10such a giant continent as Australia and
  429. 20:13on such giant beaches as they have.
  430. 20:16That's the norm. The treasure trove of
  431. 20:18nonsense grows when they talk about
  432. 20:21what will happen if you stick a foot
  433. 20:23out of the underwater cage. Maybe I
  434. 20:26shouldn't go. I wouldn't want to lose
  435. 20:30my favorite toe. He frowned. Do I even
  436. 20:35want to know? I point to my little toe.
  437. 20:38It's cute. Sharks love cute. They eat
  438. 20:41seals. Seals are cute.
  439. 20:45A few minutes later they are already at
  440. 20:48it, because why delay? And so he leads
  441. 20:51her to the edge of the boat, where two
  442. 20:54white sharks are swimming nearby. And
  443. 20:56right then, holding her by the throat,
  444. 20:59he says: "Tell me how," he whispers in
  445. 21:02my ear. His voice becomes harder. Even
  446. 21:07when an orgasm is on the horizon, an
  447. 21:09alarm starts ringing in my head as his
  448. 21:12hand tightens. If I barely manage to
  449. 21:15speak, his thrusts become increasingly
  450. 21:18sharper. Tell me, how can you be so
  451. 21:21easy with me, knowing what you stole
  452. 21:24from me? He chokes her, then bites her
  453. 21:28lip as hard as he can, and then bends
  454. 21:30her over the side of the boat and
  455. 21:32pushes her head underwater. Wanted to
  456. 21:35become a shark expert. Baby, you wanted
  457. 21:38to take this from me. Then you have to
  458. 21:41learn how to swim with them. And all
  459. 21:45this while he continues to violate her.
  460. 21:48I don't really, to be honest,
  461. 21:50understand the logistics here, because
  462. 21:52they are on their knees. He bends her
  463. 21:55over the side, while holding her thigh
  464. 21:57with his other hand. And he has to
  465. 22:00apply force to keep her underwater. I
  466. 22:04don't know, let's just imagine his arms
  467. 22:06are as oversized in length as his
  468. 22:08member, because otherwise, the math
  469. 22:10just doesn't add up for me. He drowns
  470. 22:13her while she's hysterical. Then he
  471. 22:16pulls her out of the water for a couple
  472. 22:18of seconds and returns her to the
  473. 22:20sharks. And then he does it all over
  474. 22:22again. Before I can even get a word out
  475. 22:26, he forces me under the water again. I
  476. 22:30snap my eyes open and this time I
  477. 22:33really see something moving under the
  478. 22:36surface. The outlines are blurry, but
  479. 22:38the movement is fast. It rises sharply
  480. 22:41from the ocean depths, aiming right at
  481. 22:45me. He yanks her out at the last moment
  482. 22:47. A second later, the shark breaks the
  483. 22:51surface exactly where my head just was,
  484. 22:54crashing into the boat with its jaws
  485. 22:56wide open, looking for prey.
  486. 22:59God, I nearly fainted.
  487. 23:02Remember, kids, this is Dark Romance.
  488. 23:04And Enzo-ing. This is called a little
  489. 23:09revenge, not a brutal rape. And yes, in
  490. 23:12case anyone got confused. It is rape.
  491. 23:17Because even though it all started
  492. 23:19voluntarily, she struggled later and
  493. 23:21begged him to stop when he literally
  494. 23:24started drowning her in water with
  495. 23:26hungry sharks. After such fun, he
  496. 23:29interrogates her about the theft. She
  497. 23:32had already managed to open a card in
  498. 23:34his name and spend a bit of money from
  499. 23:36it. He guesses she's wanted, which is
  500. 23:40why she can't get any job. The excuse
  501. 23:43is pretty weak, because many people
  502. 23:45work illegally, all the time, and
  503. 23:47changing your appearance, especially
  504. 23:49for a girl, really isn't that hard.
  505. 23:52Well, but without that, the plot
  506. 23:54wouldn't work. And saying it's just
  507. 23:56easier for her to live that way isn't
  508. 23:57an option either, because then it would
  509. 23:59be harder to feel sorry for her. So,
  510. 24:02she can't find a single job in the
  511. 24:04whole world because she's recognized
  512. 24:07everywhere. Actually, she must be from
  513. 24:10the Greyjoy clan. Like, we do not sow,
  514. 24:13we only—while he was throwing around
  515. 24:16pathos, like "these tears are mine now,
  516. 24:19and I'll shed plenty more if you don't
  517. 24:22tell me what I want to know." A storm
  518. 24:25has treacherously gathered at sea. All
  519. 24:27around, there are roars and waves,
  520. 24:29tossing the boat back and forth. Sawyer
  521. 24:31is in a panic, and Enzo grabs her to
  522. 24:33calm her down. Deep breath, baby. He
  523. 24:37has some kind of split personality,
  524. 24:39because a moment ago he hated her, and
  525. 24:41now she's "baby." But that's
  526. 24:43pathological. He'll be tossed around
  527. 24:46just like the boat, until the end when
  528. 24:48they flip, and Enzo slams his head into
  529. 24:50something and passes out. He wakes up
  530. 24:53to Sawyer frantically shaking him. He
  531. 24:57sees that they've ended up on a tiny
  532. 24:59rocky island with an old lighthouse.
  533. 25:03Stumbling inside, they meet a
  534. 25:06stereotypical sailor, complete with a
  535. 25:08long beard and a wooden leg. He is the
  536. 25:12local host, who operates this
  537. 25:15lighthouse. His name is Sylvester. And,
  538. 25:18oh god, why are almost all the
  539. 25:19characters here named something other
  540. 25:21than S? Enzo asks if he has a radio to
  541. 25:24get out of this suspicious place sooner
  542. 25:28. But Sylvester says no. That instantly
  543. 25:32makes everything even more suspicious,
  544. 25:34but that's just the beginning on that
  545. 25:35note, since we're just starting. Let me

  557. 26:08for your attention. Let's move on.
  558. 26:11Sylvester asks for their names, and
  559. 26:13Sawyer introduces herself with her real
  560. 26:15name. Ah, like, Enzo. She gave a fake
  561. 26:18one at first. I grit my teeth harder.
  562. 26:21It seems she doesn't feel the need to
  563. 26:23lie to him about her name. And that
  564. 26:26annoys the hell out of me. You won't
  565. 26:28believe it, but for most of the book,
  566. 26:30he will be seriously jealous of her
  567. 26:32with this old man. In short, the radio
  568. 26:35is either dead or broken, and ships
  569. 26:38supposedly don't pass by the island.
  570. 26:41Only once a month does one arrive, and
  571. 26:43Sylvester buys food and various
  572. 26:45supplies there. And how unlucky that it
  573. 26:49passed by just three days ago. What he
  574. 26:54doesn't say is that we are stuck here
  575. 26:57for a month. For a month with a creepy
  576. 27:01old geezer and a girl who almost stole
  577. 27:04my entire life. My entire life. He
  578. 27:09whines about this the whole book.
  579. 27:11It’s like she tried to sign over his
  580. 27:14house and business to herself and keep
  581. 27:16him in the basement as a sex slave.
  582. 27:18Sylvester takes them to an empty room.
  583. 27:21where Sawyer unhappily finds only one
  584. 27:25bed. Never happened in this genre
  585. 27:27before. And here's another shock. And
  586. 27:30then the old man says: "The toilet is
  587. 27:31across the hall.""But I don't like it
  588. 27:33when people walk around the house at
  589. 27:35night.""So, if you need to go, here is
  590. 27:38a bucket in the corner."
  591. 27:40A bucket.
  592. 27:41At this point, I would say alright then
  593. 27:43. It was nice to meet you. Do you
  594. 27:45happen to have any black pepper? I want
  595. 27:47to season myself so the sharks find me
  596. 27:49tastier. And that’s not all. So they
  597. 27:52don't think about disobeying him,
  598. 27:54Sylvester locks them in the bedroom.
  599. 27:57Here begins a cycle of endless
  600. 28:00bickering between our lovers. And in
  601. 28:04general, from the moment they get to
  602. 28:06the island, the book becomes so boring
  603. 28:08and repeats the same things so often
  604. 28:10that if the cringe doesn't finish you
  605. 28:12off, the dullness will. On the very
  606. 28:16first night, Sawyer hears some mystical
  607. 28:18sounds above that sound like the
  608. 28:19clanking of chains. And while she can't
  609. 28:24sleep because of this, she also
  610. 28:26remembers dragging an unconscious Enzo
  611. 28:28all the way to the island. Such a
  612. 28:32heroic secret. He will be shocked later
  613. 28:35when he finds out about it. But, well,
  614. 28:39did you think about how you both ended
  615. 28:41up in the same place, in a storm on
  616. 28:42dolphins? Here he wakes up while she is
  617. 28:46crying. "You're crying," he notes. "No,
  618. 28:49" I lie. I am sure you have never had
  619. 28:53to be strong before, Sawyer, but now is
  620. 28:56the time to learn. Oh, go to hell.
  621. 29:02You're annoying. The next day, or
  622. 29:04whenever, they headed out to fish.
  623. 29:07However, it's impossible to do without
  624. 29:10a long argument and without Enzo
  625. 29:13pulling her hair, threatening her, and
  626. 29:15so on. Who would doubt it, Enzo only
  627. 29:19knows how to bully a woman, because she
  628. 29:21was the only one of the two who managed
  629. 29:24to catch any fish. Back in the house,
  630. 29:27he cooks it and tells Sylvester that he
  631. 29:28doesn't eat fish himself. And the old
  632. 29:31man is like, he's never seen a man who
  633. 29:34would refuse good meat. The fact that
  634. 29:37he's implying I'm not a real man is
  635. 29:39obvious. But it's just as damn obvious
  636. 29:42that he is deeply mistaken. You're an
  637. 29:46animal, not a real man. Well, although
  638. 29:48what is usually meant by a real man
  639. 29:51doesn't differ that much from an animal
  640. 29:54anyway. In general, a real man just
  641. 29:56loves this. Or do we have "surimi" men
  642. 29:59or what? When they ask Sylvester about
  643. 30:02the strange night sounds, he says: "
  644. 30:04Those are ghosts." And he dumps a long,
  645. 30:08boring story on them about a ship with
  646. 30:10prisoners and how he was forced to kill
  647. 30:13some of them. I won't bore you with it;
  648. 30:16you probably have it hard enough
  649. 30:17already. The main thing to take away
  650. 30:19from this. Sylvester is lying, but
  651. 30:21Sawyer will think that there are real
  652. 30:23ghosts living in the lighthouse until
  653. 30:25the end of the book. Into the treasury
  654. 30:28of nonsense, Sawyer thinks upon seeing
  655. 30:31Enzo: "I can't stand how attractive he
  656. 30:33is, even when he stares at me like I
  657. 30:36haven't been sniffing marijuana." And
  658. 30:39they aren't sniffing marijuana. And
  659. 30:42even despite that, nothing adds up at
  660. 30:45all. And believe me, context won't help
  661. 30:48. Suspecting that something is wrong
  662. 30:50with the old man, they break into his
  663. 30:52bedroom. But then Sylvester comes in to
  664. 30:55take a nap, while they hide in fear.
  665. 30:58Enzo can't think of anything better
  666. 31:00than to put his hands down her pants. I
  667. 31:03open my mouth, ready to whisper quietly
  668. 31:07but firmly for him to suck on my
  669. 31:11favorite toe. But the only thing that
  670. 31:14comes out is a squeak. Toe. Actually,
  671. 31:21in this specific case, the phrase "
  672. 31:24sucking a toe" is slang for a lighter
  673. 31:27version of "suck my...". But it gets
  674. 31:31repeated in the same chapter. And
  675. 31:33besides, she’s annoyed everyone with
  676. 31:36her toe obsession. Enzo tells her: "I
  677. 31:39want to hear you break and be unable to
  678. 31:41scream." Well yeah, it’s not like
  679. 31:45Sylvester is already asleep and you
  680. 31:46guys should probably clear out of his
  681. 31:48room, because it would be really
  682. 31:50awkward if he caught you there. Instead
  683. 31:53, the torture continues. It hurts you,
  684. 31:57baby, that you can't scream for me the
  685. 31:59way you want to. This little one is so
  686. 32:04damn wet. Listen to how beautifully she
  687. 32:08sings for me. Why don't you sing me a
  688. 32:11lullaby, Bella? Let me hear it. Well,
  689. 32:16we haven't had singers before. Well,
  690. 32:19that was a surprise. And in general, if
  691. 32:21mine were singing, I wouldn't want her
  692. 32:24to put men to sleep. It should have the
  693. 32:26opposite effect. Nope. And when she
  694. 32:29finishes, she tries to sneak past the
  695. 32:31sleeping Sylvester. Her lullaby lulled
  696. 32:35him to sleep. Baby. So we are sticking
  697. 32:38with this metaphor. Yes, clear. I’m
  698. 32:40starting to understand the editor. Only
  699. 32:42Enzo seems to have decided to live in
  700. 32:45this closet, because he snaps at her.
  701. 32:48Like: "Where do you think you're going?
  702. 32:50If he thinks I’ll stay after this,
  703. 32:53then he can go to hell." I understand
  704. 32:57he was trying to distract me from my
  705. 33:00obvious panic attack, but now I feel
  706. 33:03cheap and I already regret it. Well, if
  707. 33:07that's what he was distracting you from
  708. 33:10. They keep living in constant
  709. 33:16arguments, but Sawyer finds a secret
  710. 33:18cave, where everything is very
  711. 33:20beautiful, and starts escaping there
  712. 33:23constantly to be alone. Enzo, meanwhile
  713. 33:26, walks around with a sour face, like
  714. 33:28someone peed in his cereal. So they are
  715. 33:31lying there one night, and she can't
  716. 33:33stand that this jerk is ignoring her.
  717. 33:36And he’s tossing and turning, keeping
  718. 33:38her awake. So she can't think of
  719. 33:41anything better than to push him and
  720. 33:43say, "Get out," to which he just shoves
  721. 33:45her off the bed. What kind of romance
  722. 33:50is that, people? They start wrestling
  723. 33:53around. She’s slapping him wherever
  724. 33:56she can reach. And a teenage spat
  725. 33:58ensues. Like: "You don't pay attention
  726. 34:01to me, you're so mean." It gets to "you
  727. 34:04want to hear something harsh, Sawyer?"
  728. 34:08How about the fact that it’s hard to
  729. 34:10sleep next to a damn soul-sucking demon
  730. 34:13? And just being near you makes me sick
  731. 34:18. And what’s even worse? I can still
  732. 34:21smell you on my fingers. Despite having
  733. 34:24washed you off, you’re the one who
  734. 34:26stuck them there yourself. Hello? He
  735. 34:29continues to pile it on her. Like: "
  736. 34:32You're the worst thing that's ever
  737. 34:33happened to me." And everything you do
  738. 34:36is calculated. Were you really
  739. 34:38panicking when we were in the closet?
  740. 34:40Or was that just another one of your
  741. 34:43plans? God, I want him to die so badly.
  742. 34:46I mean, she's trapped with you and the
  743. 34:49first thing she thinks is: I need to
  744. 34:51fake a panic because then he'll put his
  745. 34:54hands down my pants. It inevitably
  746. 34:57reaches the point where she's already
  747. 34:59turned on. Would you scream this time?
  748. 35:01"—he asks grimly." You always do that
  749. 35:05when you create your little ocean
  750. 35:07around me. "He also calls her Amor Mio.
  751. 35:16It all adds up. Page back. I hate you.
  752. 35:20Now my love. Absolutely stable behavior
  753. 35:25. However, this time it’s interrupted
  754. 35:28because one of them saw a girl standing
  755. 35:30in the ocean from the window. And
  756. 35:33naturally, this really unsettled them.
  757. 35:35Sylvester will later tell them that
  758. 35:37these are also ghosts. Of course,
  759. 35:40another week passes after the closet
  760. 35:43incident, and Enzo is furious that she
  761. 35:45disappears every day and pays him no
  762. 35:47mind. I mean, in the sense that she
  763. 35:51isn't sitting by me and letting me
  764. 35:54humiliate her 24/7. She’s gotten
  765. 35:56completely bold. It infuriates him so
  766. 35:59much that one fine day he sneaks after
  767. 36:02her into her secret cave and even has
  768. 36:05the audacity to think. It pisses me off
  769. 36:08that she was hiding this from me. Well,
  770. 36:11of course, because she owes you
  771. 36:13everything for some reason. In the cave
  772. 36:15, a conversation like this unfolds. Are
  773. 36:18you here to kill me, Enzo? Is it
  774. 36:21because I don't return your feelings,
  775. 36:23my dear? If anyone were to become
  776. 36:26obsessed with you, it would only be
  777. 36:28because of what's between your thighs,
  778. 36:30not because you have anything else to
  779. 36:33offer. She doesn't answer. She always
  780. 36:37has something to say until she faces
  781. 36:39the truth about her character and
  782. 36:42actions. Can someone please explain to
  783. 36:45me how we are supposed to think this
  784. 36:47scum is the man of our dreams? And
  785. 36:49further, when he approaches her and
  786. 36:52notices she's all frozen, he thinks: I
  787. 36:54like that she feels me, that she fears
  788. 36:57me. Stealing from me is the worst thing
  789. 37:00she is capable of, but I will do
  790. 37:02something much worse to her. I like
  791. 37:06that she fears me. The hero of our
  792. 37:09novel. If you think about it, this
  793. 37:12archetype is often featured in True
  794. 37:14Crime episodes like" He beat his wife
  795. 37:15because she oversalted his borscht. "
  796. 37:19Are you going to try to touch me?"—
  797. 37:21she throws out. "Belladonna, I will
  798. 37:24never touch you again, even when you
  799. 37:27beg me to." Oh, who are you kidding?
  800. 37:31Just when I think Enso can't be more
  801. 37:33disgraceful, he proves me wrong. By the
  802. 37:36way, Belaladra is a "good little thief.
  803. 37:38" He calls her that 100 million times
  804. 37:41throughout the book. Among other things
  805. 37:44, I wanted to note that people in my
  806. 37:46Telegram comments wrote he even called
  807. 37:48her a "little shark" in the Ukrainian
  808. 37:50translation, but to my great regret, I
  809. 37:53didn't find that in the original.
  810. 37:55Honestly, I just feel sorry for her.
  811. 37:57Having finished another session of
  812. 38:00tormenting her, he leaves. She is left
  813. 38:03bewildered and ashamed, and won't dare
  814. 38:06to show her face for a long time. "I
  815. 38:10have plenty of time to finish while
  816. 38:13thinking of your tears."
  817. 38:15God, what a piece of work.
  818. 38:19Later, in the lighthouse, he continues
  819. 38:22with this crap. And after the next
  820. 38:25moment, I will start skipping most
  821. 38:27similar parts because I am too tired.
  822. 38:30But keep in mind that there are plenty
  823. 38:32more of them. So, having pulled her
  824. 38:35hair again, he says: "Because I want to
  825. 38:39see you suffer, and I’ll do
  826. 38:41everything in my power to make that
  827. 38:44happen; if it means keeping you alive
  828. 38:47just so I can destroy you, so be it."
  829. 38:50Then he shoves me away, forcing me to
  830. 38:54stumble and land right on my butt. Well
  831. 38:58, at least he didn't punch her in the
  832. 39:00face, I don't know. Though, in
  833. 39:02principle, it makes no difference.
  834. 39:08Meanwhile, the ghosts are still acting
  835. 39:11up. Sylvester keeps hitting on Sawyer,
  836. 39:14which is maximally disgusting, I have
  837. 39:16to say. And so we move on to the next
  838. 39:19scene. Is this one even fighting? I
  839. 39:22think you can already see what I meant
  840. 39:25when I said the book is endlessly
  841. 39:27repetitive. This time they are sleeping
  842. 39:29, and she dreams of having sex with him
  843. 39:31. But at the most interesting part, he
  844. 39:34accidentally hits her in the head with
  845. 39:37his arm, and she wakes up. To get
  846. 39:40revenge, she wakes him up in return,
  847. 39:42and it begins: "What are you doing?
  848. 39:45Well, you ruined a good dream for me.
  849. 39:48How dare you wake me up for that? And
  850. 39:51anyway, what was it, what did you dream
  851. 39:53about me, what was I doing to you there
  852. 39:55?" And she's like, "No, nothing
  853. 39:57happened there." That's another lie.
  854. 40:00Sawyer, I can hear your "fish" from
  855. 40:04here. Personally, this only raises
  856. 40:09questions about her health. Well, but
  857. 40:13what's surprising about that, if you
  858. 40:15sleep with random guys without a condom
  859. 40:18, and do it on beaches and in
  860. 40:20waterfalls? Even if she avoided STDs,
  861. 40:23getting a yeast infection is easy as
  862. 40:26pie. Anyway, never mind. She's like, "
  863. 40:29My cheeks burn when I feel how slippery
  864. 40:33the inside of my thighs is." It feels
  865. 40:36like she has a faucet down there.
  866. 40:38Strange that only her thighs are
  867. 40:39slippery, and not all the way to her
  868. 40:41heels. Well, with a stud like that in
  869. 40:43bed. They are f---ing. Even though he
  870. 40:46promised so loudly just a couple of
  871. 40:48pages ago that he would never do that
  872. 40:50again. I think my bladder is about to
  873. 40:55empty itself. And even though I know
  874. 40:58exactly what he’s going to make me do
  875. 41:01, I feel like I’m losing control of
  876. 41:03my own body. You will finish for me,
  877. 41:05Bella, and you'll go crazy. Depend on
  878. 41:08me. If I’m not covered in all of this
  879. 41:12, I’ll make you repeat it until
  880. 41:14there’s nothing left of you. Just
  881. 41:17don't flood the neighbors downstairs.
  882. 41:20It doesn’t take long for him to
  883. 41:22return to beast mode. And here we go
  884. 41:25again. Because the girl I brought home
  885. 41:28was not the same person who stole my
  886. 41:31life from me. Man, this really kills me
  887. 41:34. This is what stole my life. Oh, for
  888. 41:38God's sake, Enzo, you can just call the
  889. 41:40bank and cancel that card. Exhale, calm
  890. 41:44down, tape. So one evening, she and
  891. 41:49Sylvester got together to have a drink
  892. 41:51and share their secrets. During their
  893. 41:54hangout, she hands Sylvester her glass
  894. 41:56so he can pour her some more. And Enzo
  895. 41:59is just having enough. Holy [ __ ], boy.
  896. 42:02Maybe you should also order her when
  897. 42:04she is and isn't allowed to go to the
  898. 42:06bathroom. By the end, she continues to
  899. 42:09drink and reveals that her twin brother
  900. 42:11had been molesting and raping her since
  901. 42:14childhood. What a shock! Nobody, and I
  902. 42:17mean nobody, suspected it would come to
  903. 42:20this. Sylvester, for his part, says he
  904. 42:22lived with his wife and two daughters.
  905. 42:25One of them committed suicide, and his
  906. 42:27wife took the other one with her when
  907. 42:29she left the island. Don't start
  908. 42:31feeling sorry for him yet, because I
  909. 42:33think most of you have already realized
  910. 42:35that you can't trust him. Enzo's tragic
  911. 42:39backstory, by the way, which he told
  912. 42:42earlier, is that his mother left him at
  913. 42:44a monastery when he was about eight,
  914. 42:47said she’d return, and never did. So
  915. 42:51he grew up with the nuns. I understand
  916. 42:55everything, but mommy issues at his age
  917. 42:57can no longer serve as an excuse for
  918. 42:59such shitty behavior. Was I supposed to
  919. 43:02pity him because of that or what? After
  920. 43:04learning what her brother did to her,
  921. 43:07and also that she carried Enzo across
  922. 43:09the ocean on her back so he wouldn't
  923. 43:11die, our hero suddenly changes his mind
  924. 43:14and starts telling her how unique she
  925. 43:16is and how wrong he was to call her
  926. 43:19weak. And every day I lie to myself,
  927. 43:23telling myself that I’m only hooked
  928. 43:25on you because of how sweet you taste
  929. 43:28or how easily you cry for me. But I
  930. 43:32know it’s just about you. The only
  931. 43:35ones crying here are the readers, you
  932. 43:36jerk. There’s a whole bunch of sex
  933. 43:39scenes after this, but I really have to
  934. 43:42quickly recap one. So, they’re on the
  935. 43:46beach, and at one point, when she’s
  936. 43:48on top, he turns her around so her back
  937. 43:50is to him and she’s facing the ocean,
  938. 43:53and he uses two fingers to stretch her
  939. 43:55mouth while saying: "Smile, little one.
  940. 43:57" Why? Just tell me, why does the sex
  941. 44:06in Carlton have to be so weird? And not
  942. 44:09in a good way, either. She decides to
  943. 44:12mess with him and gets off right before
  944. 44:16he finishes. What does he say? Sawyer
  945. 44:19continues to test my patience. "Your
  946. 44:23smile is only beautiful thanks to those
  947. 44:25teeth.""I wouldn’t want to see you
  948. 44:28without them." Girls, I don’t know
  949. 44:30about you, but I just instantly climax
  950. 44:32when someone threatens to knock all my
  951. 44:34teeth out. It’s always one thing
  952. 44:37after another with us. After a few days
  953. 44:39, Sawyer figured she’d just stay on
  954. 44:41the island with Sylvester, and then
  955. 44:43supposedly she wouldn’t have to run
  956. 44:45from the law. The old man is thrilled,
  957. 44:48of course, and Enzo is losing his mind.
  958. 44:51He says: "Come with me instead, and
  959. 44:54I’ll protect you." She asks: "And
  960. 44:56what would I do in that case?" To which
  961. 44:59he’s like: "You’ll work for me?"
  962. 45:01Well, that’s so he can not only
  963. 45:03physically and verbally abuse her, but
  964. 45:05financially as well. I am understanding
  965. 45:07that correctly, right? Then he
  966. 45:09apologizes for the repeated rape. Like
  967. 45:12that’s somehow supposed to make
  968. 45:14things better or undo everything he did
  969. 45:17after that. Suddenly gathering some
  970. 45:20courage, she says: "If you want me to
  971. 45:22choose you, get on your knees and
  972. 45:24apologize for how you treated me." He
  973. 45:28does it, and at that moment, I’m
  974. 45:29already wondering how many pages
  975. 45:31it’ll take until he goes back to
  976. 45:33swearing at her. See how much he enjoys
  977. 45:37insulting her. But to forgive him, she
  978. 45:41also wants him to kiss my favorite toe
  979. 45:45first. I want to officially address all
  980. 45:50sharks. If you see this woman in the
  981. 45:53water, please bite that toe off. Or
  982. 45:55better yet, just eat her whole. Do
  983. 45:58humanity a small favor. By the way,
  984. 46:01this chapter mentions three times that
  985. 46:03he sniffs her crotch. Now I’m
  986. 46:06convinced there is something very wrong
  987. 46:08there. And honestly, now that we’re
  988. 46:10on that subject, they saw a boat from
  989. 46:12the window recently. Which means
  990. 46:14Sylvester lied to them about no one
  991. 46:16ever sailing by. And since Sylvester
  992. 46:19won’t let them near the spotlight,
  993. 46:21maybe Sawyer could just go outside
  994. 46:23closer to the sea. Like, you know,
  995. 46:25maybe they’ll sniff her out from the
  996. 46:26ship. I don’t remember how, but she
  997. 46:29bumped her head somewhere around here.
  998. 46:31I think I fell from somewhere, but
  999. 46:33that's not really important. Anyway,
  1000. 46:35the chapter begins with: "They say you
  1001. 46:37should never sleep with a concussion."
  1002. 46:40It's common knowledge, but I've reached
  1003. 46:43the point where I don't care if it
  1004. 46:45makes me brainless. Oh, honey, you
  1005. 46:47don't have to worry about that anymore.
  1006. 46:50Sleep to your heart's content. There
  1007. 46:52they go again, whispering about their
  1008. 46:54little secrets. And she asks Vence for
  1009. 46:57the full history of his family. After
  1010. 46:59Mia Madra left me on the steps, I was
  1011. 47:02taken to the Sacred Heart Institute,
  1012. 47:04where I was raised and went to school.
  1013. 47:07Depends on which fabric, depends on
  1014. 47:09where the FAK comes from.
  1015. 47:11The scariest part is that he talks like
  1016. 47:13that all the time. And in this case,
  1017. 47:15it's very obvious that Carlton has
  1018. 47:17absolutely no idea how to properly
  1019. 47:20write a character who is speaking a
  1020. 47:22non-native language. Since they got
  1021. 47:25close and decided she would go home
  1022. 47:28with him, she decides to tell Sylvester
  1023. 47:30, because he had somehow convinced
  1024. 47:32himself that she had finally decided to
  1025. 47:34stay with him. When she says she's
  1026. 47:38leaving, he threatens that if she
  1027. 47:40doesn't obey, he'll tell everyone she's
  1028. 47:42wanted by the law. She asks: "What
  1029. 47:45makes him think she's wanted?" And
  1030. 47:48he’s like: "You expect me to believe
  1031. 47:50that a young lady like you hasn't
  1032. 47:53resorted to illegal acts to make ends
  1033. 47:55meet?" The treasure trove of nonsense
  1034. 47:58is about to explode, because, like,
  1035. 48:00what does that even mean? So, it turns
  1036. 48:03out all young girls are just criminals,
  1037. 48:06otherwise they couldn't survive. This
  1038. 48:10reminds me of an artist. All women are
  1039. 48:13hookers. Completely losing it,
  1040. 48:15Sylvester hits her in the face. Enzo
  1041. 48:18runs in, but Sylvester is in control of
  1042. 48:20the situation with a shotgun. This is
  1043. 48:24followed by a lot of rustling and
  1044. 48:26running back and forth, but it ends
  1045. 48:28with Enzo locking Sylvester in his own
  1046. 48:30basement, where, by the way, an entire
  1047. 48:32graveyard of victims 'scabs is hidden.
  1048. 48:36And Enzo himself runs to the cave where
  1049. 48:38Soyar had escaped earlier. He wants
  1050. 48:40what I have. When she remains silent, I
  1051. 48:43shift my gaze to her. You, Bella? He
  1052. 48:46doesn't like the thought that you
  1053. 48:48belong to me—I say in a voice so low
  1054. 48:50I don't even recognize it myself.
  1055. 48:53Imagine how he'd feel if he had to
  1056. 48:56watch that. Everything in the world
  1057. 48:58revolves around you, after all. It's
  1058. 49:01not that Sylvester just wants a young
  1059. 49:04girl to rape. He's jealous of you
  1060. 49:07because she's your property. Ugh. I
  1061. 49:11can't. He literally makes me want to
  1062. 49:13puke. Here he decides to confess his
  1063. 49:15feelings to her in Italian, so it would
  1064. 49:18be easier for him to pour his soul out
  1065. 49:20to her. Even when I speak in another
  1066. 49:23language, she still hears me. Well,
  1067. 49:26honey, that’s actually how sound
  1068. 49:28works, regardless of what language
  1069. 49:29you’re speaking. I obviously
  1070. 49:32understand what was intended here, but
  1071. 49:34these ass-backwards phrasings just
  1072. 49:36invite mockery. And she replies, "
  1073. 49:39Someday I'll learn Italian and
  1074. 49:41understand everything you said to me."
  1075. 49:44The funniest thing about this is that
  1076. 49:47he was supposed to say or admit
  1077. 49:49something he didn't have the courage to
  1078. 49:52say in English. But the problem is that
  1079. 49:55, in the end, he didn't actually say
  1080. 49:57anything new at all. I mean, it was the
  1081. 50:00same old stuff about how unique she is
  1082. 50:02and how he can't stop thinking about
  1083. 50:04her, and how he can't hate her. The
  1084. 50:07question is: what's the point of all
  1085. 50:08this? Well, for the drama, of course.
  1086. 50:11Another sex scene; as she nears
  1087. 50:13squirting, he says: "It's time for you
  1088. 50:15to take revenge, Belaladra. I already
  1089. 50:19drowned you once. Now it's your turn to
  1090. 50:22drown me." I instantly wrap my hands
  1091. 50:25around her thighs and pull her back to
  1092. 50:28my face with all my might. Mouth wide
  1093. 50:31open, I drink from her like a man who
  1094. 50:33has been wandering the open sea for
  1095. 50:35months. My name echoes while she
  1096. 50:39writhes above me, filling my mouth with
  1097. 50:42her wetness, which trickles down my
  1098. 50:44lips. He says: "I’m going to
  1099. 50:51overwrite your bad memory of me
  1100. 50:53drowning you." With a good memory of me
  1101. 50:56drowning you. I lift her buttocks
  1102. 50:59higher, choosing a more convenient
  1103. 51:01angle to reach her cervix. But that
  1104. 51:05hurts. Hello? And personally, it's hard
  1105. 51:08for me to imagine how this pain could
  1106. 51:11be pleasurable. Like, you could even
  1107. 51:14get a bruise from that, and then your
  1108. 51:16stomach hurts for several days. Great
  1109. 51:19fun. In short, he's hurting and "
  1110. 51:22drowning" her because he wants her
  1111. 51:25while she feels like she's dying. After
  1112. 51:29finishing inside her, he coats his
  1113. 51:32finger in his sperm and shoves it into
  1114. 51:35her back door because he wants to be
  1115. 51:37everywhere. But then he even writes his
  1116. 51:42name on her with his sperm. Yeah, why
  1117. 51:46not? Just write it on her forehead with
  1118. 51:48a marker so it’s clear and visible to
  1119. 51:50everyone. Or better yet, get a tattoo
  1120. 51:52from that old man at the beginning of
  1121. 51:54the book, just to be sure. The next day
  1122. 51:57, they return to the lighthouse and see
  1123. 51:59that Sylvester and the basement are
  1124. 52:01gone. Now they need to hurry and find
  1125. 52:04the spotlight, and make sure they don't
  1126. 52:06get ambushed by the ghost. Meanwhile,
  1127. 52:09the ghosts are getting bolder, since
  1128. 52:12someone tried to break down the
  1129. 52:14couple's bedroom door, leaving, well,
  1130. 52:16physical scratches. Finally, it starts
  1131. 52:20to dawn on them that these probably
  1132. 52:21aren't any friendly Caspers. They spend
  1133. 52:24several days in a row looking for that
  1134. 52:26spotlight room. And so, on the second
  1135. 52:28day or whatever, Enzo suddenly starts
  1136. 52:31acting like a total jerk again. He
  1137. 52:33spends the whole day either ignoring
  1138. 52:35her or being rude to her. And when he
  1139. 52:38orders her to eat what he’s cooked,
  1140. 52:40she says, "I’m not hungry." Well,
  1141. 52:43because she’s been under constant
  1142. 52:45stress, he lunges at her, grabs her
  1143. 52:48hair, and slams her back against the
  1144. 52:50table. Once again dumping a pile of
  1145. 52:54insults and filth on her. And do you
  1146. 52:57know what triggered this childish
  1147. 52:58tantrum? He accidentally found a credit
  1148. 53:01card that Sawyer had opened in his name
  1149. 53:03and just hadn't thrown away yet. So,
  1150. 53:07instead of asking her like a normal
  1151. 53:08human being and figuring out what
  1152. 53:10happened, he had to act like total scum
  1153. 53:12all day and raise his hand against her.
  1154. 53:15He drives her to tears, but even that
  1155. 53:18isn't enough for him. You have no right
  1156. 53:21to cry. When did you ever ruin me?
  1157. 53:26She apologizes for the hundredth time,
  1158. 53:28and he says, "I know, but I still don't
  1159. 53:31want to forgive you." Well then, go
  1160. 53:34jump in a lake. What could she possibly
  1161. 53:36do to you? I mean, she’s supposed to
  1162. 53:39forgive you for violent rape, for how
  1163. 53:40you've behaved this whole time, and for
  1164. 53:42the fact that you actually kidnapped
  1165. 53:44her. But you, heaven forbid, can't
  1166. 53:47forgive her because she opened a card
  1167. 53:49in your name and spent a few hundred
  1168. 53:51dollars. And you realized what she did
  1169. 53:55immediately, and you chose not to block
  1170. 53:57the card yourself. A total catastrophe.
  1171. 54:00No one in this world has ever been
  1172. 54:03treated worse than you. Then they start
  1173. 54:05going at it so hard they actually break
  1174. 54:07the table. And now he’s confessing
  1175. 54:09his love to her, and she to him. And in
  1176. 54:12honor of this, she decides to come
  1177. 54:14clean about everything and says that
  1178. 54:17she killed her brother. That’s
  1179. 54:20supposedly why the entire police force
  1180. 54:22of the world is chasing her. Well, at
  1181. 54:24least that’s how she presents it
  1182. 54:26throughout the book. And, in short, he
  1183. 54:28had been raping her from childhood
  1184. 54:30until she was 18. Her parents didn’t
  1185. 54:33believe her, he was a cop, so going to
  1186. 54:34them wasn't an option either. One day
  1187. 54:37she just snapped and stabbed him. That
  1188. 54:39was all more or less obvious. Almost
  1189. 54:41from the beginning. So, the plot twist
  1190. 54:43is pretty weak. After finishing her
  1191. 54:46story, she waits for his reaction, but
  1192. 54:49he remains calm. Why aren't you angry?
  1193. 54:52I killed a person in cold blood. Sorry,
  1194. 54:56but if someone is going to be shocked
  1195. 54:58or angry at me for killing my rapist, I
  1196. 55:00won’t talk to them anymore. I don’t
  1197. 55:03need people like that in my life.
  1198. 55:05Goodbye. He asks: "Do you want me to be
  1199. 55:07angry?" I think a normal person’s
  1200. 55:10reaction would be shock. A lot of
  1201. 55:14judgment, and then, perhaps, a quiet
  1202. 55:16call to 911. Oh, you guys are just all
  1203. 55:20abnormal nightmares. Raise your hand in
  1204. 55:22the comments, please, if you would
  1205. 55:25react to this story with shock and
  1206. 55:27judgment, not applause. Because, well,
  1207. 55:29I honestly don't believe that such
  1208. 55:31normal people are the majority. Finally
  1209. 55:34, they found a spotlight because some
  1210. 55:37unknown person moved a shelf that was
  1211. 55:40hiding a door. And then, a skinny,
  1212. 55:43filthy girl with her mouth stitched
  1213. 55:45shut walks into the room. Enzo Pescho
  1214. 55:49realizes that she is real. What—
  1215. 55:52screams Sawyer. What do you mean when
  1216. 55:54you say she is real? Is that good or
  1217. 55:57bad? And what do you think? A ghost
  1218. 55:59can't really do you much harm, unlike a
  1219. 56:02potentially unstable human being. They
  1220. 56:05figure out that this is Sylvester’s
  1221. 56:07second daughter and she confirms that
  1222. 56:09he actually killed her mother so she
  1223. 56:11wouldn't leave the island. Next, I
  1224. 56:14don't understand the logic at all,
  1225. 56:16because Enzo is about to go downstairs
  1226. 56:19when he hears that, uh, Sylvester has
  1227. 56:21appeared there, and he's like, "This
  1228. 56:23could turn into a shootout." What is
  1229. 56:26all this for? If you've already found a
  1230. 56:29witness, you can just shoot his head
  1231. 56:31off from around the corner now. Why
  1232. 56:33this heroism? What shootout, anyway?
  1233. 56:37While gunshots start coming from below,
  1234. 56:39the girl suddenly changes her mind
  1235. 56:41about helping them and attacks Sawyer.
  1236. 56:44She manages to run downstairs and sees
  1237. 56:46only Sylvester, who is sitting
  1238. 56:48contentedly on the sofa. He says that
  1239. 56:51the daughter was very happy to have a
  1240. 56:53friend, that is, Sawyer. And also that
  1241. 56:57he sewed her mouth shut because she
  1242. 56:58somehow tried to call for help, despite
  1243. 57:01the fact that he had already cut out
  1244. 57:02her tongue. Well, in short, like, he's
  1245. 57:06just very twisted. While she is
  1246. 57:09fighting him, stabbing him with a knife
  1247. 57:11and all that, Enzo wakes up in the
  1248. 57:13basement and decides to set fire to his
  1249. 57:15door to get out. A trick that only
  1250. 57:18works in Carlton's imagination. But
  1251. 57:21never mind that. The still-alive
  1252. 57:23Sylvester shoots Enzo, but his daughter
  1253. 57:25is just as fickle as our main
  1254. 57:27characters. So she changes her mind
  1255. 57:29again and throws herself to protect him
  1256. 57:32. She died. Enzo shot Sylvester, and
  1257. 57:36all they have left to do is wait for
  1258. 57:38help to finally arrive. Meanwhile, Enzo
  1259. 57:42gets a "brilliant idea" for Sawyer to
  1260. 57:44pretend to be Sylvester's second
  1261. 57:46daughter. To, like, pretend that the
  1262. 57:50real Sawyer died on this very island a
  1263. 57:52long time ago. That way, she can, like,
  1264. 57:55start a new life. And I'm afraid to
  1265. 57:58even start explaining how idiotic this
  1266. 58:00plan is and how many things in it don't
  1267. 58:02work. So let's just pretend that it all
  1268. 58:05adds up. They are taken to the police
  1269. 58:08and interrogated. Sawyer gives them a
  1270. 58:11note that the real Sawyer supposedly
  1271. 58:13wrote before committing suicide.
  1272. 58:16Somehow people believe she's
  1273. 58:17Sylvester's daughter, because she
  1274. 58:19claims her father liked to beat one
  1275. 58:21girl, but liked to rape her, which is
  1276. 58:23why she's supposedly so well-groomed.
  1277. 58:27DNA tests, of course, don't exist in
  1278. 58:29the Carlton world, nor does logic, but
  1279. 58:31fine. Finally they both get released,
  1280. 58:35and Sawyer, naturally, goes to live
  1281. 58:37with Enzo, where we are gifted with
  1282. 58:39this charming conversation. You don't
  1283. 58:42want kids? Absolutely not. I return at
  1284. 58:44the exact moment he walks out of the
  1285. 58:47shower. Water droplets run down his
  1286. 58:50tanned skin, lingering on the light
  1287. 58:52fuzz on his chest and getting lost in
  1288. 58:55the chiseled grooves of his abs. My
  1289. 58:58mouth goes dry. Okay, maybe I do. Just
  1290. 59:02the tip of the "beul" is enough. Should
  1291. 59:05have named them "tip" and "finger." It
  1292. 59:08seems like all the drama is over, but
  1293. 59:11we still have a hell of a lot of
  1294. 59:13chapters left because some authors
  1295. 59:15don't know when to stop. They find out
  1296. 59:19that Sawyer was even more heroic than
  1297. 59:21they imagined, because after her
  1298. 59:24brother’s murder, several young girls
  1299. 59:27confirmed he had raped them too. And
  1300. 59:30now she starts a new life with a new
  1301. 59:33name. But you want to hear the funny
  1302. 59:35part? She keeps the name Sawyer, sort
  1303. 59:38of in honor of the poor girl who died
  1304. 59:41on her island. And only her last name
  1305. 59:45changes to Vitale, that is, the name of
  1306. 59:48Enzo, who was the one who made her take
  1307. 59:51it. But that’s not all from the
  1308. 59:55treasure chest of nonsense. Although we
  1309. 59:58are approaching the level of
  1310. 59:59high-as-a-kite gibberish "a month later
  1311. 1:00:01." I still don't understand why you
  1312. 1:00:04insisted I take your last name. We're
  1313. 1:00:06not even married. Marriage is just a
  1314. 1:00:09piece of paper, but a last name is not.
  1315. 1:00:13What, two years later they are both in
  1316. 1:00:15a cage under the water, with sharks
  1317. 1:00:17swimming nearby? While they sailed
  1318. 1:00:21there on a yacht, a boat Enzo bought
  1319. 1:00:24the day of their engagem...he took me
  1320. 1:00:27out on the water at sunset and put a
  1321. 1:00:30diamond ring on my finger without even
  1322. 1:00:33asking. Like, seriously, why do they
  1323. 1:00:37never even ask? It's just some kind of
  1324. 1:00:40torture, it's like...Like, because
  1325. 1:00:42asking isn't "alpha" enough, or what?
  1326. 1:00:45Thank God, at this point we are
  1327. 1:00:47wrapping things up. I don't know what
  1328. 1:00:49to tell you in conclusion. Carlton
  1329. 1:00:51never ceases to amaze me with this kind
  1330. 1:00:54of horror. Although I thought that
  1331. 1:00:56after stalking Adelina and that other
  1332. 1:00:58[ __ ] that's in there—is it a sequel
  1333. 1:01:00or something?—it was impossible, but
  1334. 1:01:02it turns out it's possible. So, uh,
  1335. 1:01:05write to me what you thought. Thank you
  1336. 1:01:07for your attention and see you in the
  1337. 1:01:10next video. Meow to everyone.
