Remember how Wong Kar Wai tackled the topic of defining what is infidelity in a relationship with In the Mood for Love (2000)? This is the black mirror version of it. Heavily nuanced, multi-layered, the ending leaves viewers feeling empty, yet shocked. Perhaps it did hit some viewers a little, people who had fallen in love with someone they are not supposed to. A very poignant and well executed episode.
