The ending underscores the dangerous and toxic nature of their relationship, built on manipulation and distrust, leading both women down a dark path where the lines between victim and perpetrator blur. In the end, neither woman emerges entirely innocent, and their stories are intertwined in a destructive struggle for power and survival.**‘s final act of violence signifies her ultimate assertion of control, even in a world that has tried to strip her of her agency.
