What helps make the twist of "White Bear" such an impactful one is largely due to the commentary it makes regarding the media, justice, and empathy. Iain tortured the young girl and eventually killed her, while Victoria filmed. The video footage reveals that Victoria and her fiancé Iain Rannoch abducted and killed Jemima Sykes (the man and girl from the photographs). Her attention is guided toward the screen in front of her which identifies her as Victoria Skillane. She is then bound to a chair where she learns that the entire day has been a staged show, filled with actors and onlookers. The walls behind her begin to shift, unveiling a live studio audience. In fending off two hunters, the unnamed woman gets ahold of a gun and shoots it, confusingly discovering that it releases confetti instead of a bullet. The twist of "White Bear" comes soon after Jem and the unnamed woman make it to the White Bear facility. According to Jem, the mindless behavior of the onlookers and the violent behavior of the hunters is due to the strange upside-down y-shaped symbol spotted throughout "White Bear." She manages to make one ally in Jem, who reveals her plan to get to White Bear in order to destroy the transmitter and put an end to the strange behavior around them. She begins venturing through a cryptic landscape where people standby to suspiciously watch, chase, and record her.
Navigating through the house, she finds a photograph of herself and a man, along with a second image of a young girl that she takes with her. "White Bear" begins with a woman who wakes with no idea of where or who she is. RELATED: How Can Squid Game Season 2 Top The First?
