After leaving the birthday party, Betsy Swain appears in a completely different image: a staggering girl, both drunk and lonely.

The scene pushes the audience’s emotions to the climax when Betsy picks up the phone, leaving a voice message for Dylan: “I’m drunk and alone.

Call me back…”.

Not stopping there, Betsy continues to send a message to her mother Lisa, in a choked voice: “I’m sorry for everything… but I need some space.

I know you’re gone, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be the same.” This very meaningful sentence has become a chilling prophecy, paving the way for the upcoming tragedy.

While Betsy is still choking, the roar of an engine is heard in the distance. The camera pans slowly, the bright headlights shine on her panicked face. A stolen car rushes forward as if it can’t stop. Betsy screamed, covering her face as the audience held their breath. The deafening crash rang out, and the screen went black, leaving a suffocating void.

ITV deliberately left Betsy’s fate open, leaving viewers glued to the screen, wondering: Will her 18th birthday turn out to be a fateful day? Or is that terrifying scream just the beginning of a turning point in adulthood?
