the premise of the show is rape
Even the reviews that skew more negative don't seem to realize that the whole entire premise hinges on rape and I'm irritated about it. The summary that Netflix gave back when I tried to watch it was basically just a one night stands that leads to an accidental pregnancy between two people of very different social statuses. Which I mean... that's not inaccurate, but it's leaving a lot out. As the MDL summary says, it's two couples on a cruise ship, the woman from couple A is feeling unwell and accidentally finds herself in couple B's room as she tries to sleep. The man from couple B gets really drunk and comes to his room. They both think the other person is their partner bc they're in the dark and he's whispering so she can't really hear his voice. He then starts pushing for sex, which she's not interested in -- which means he should stop! -- but after some pleading she eventually gives in. Gross.
