The story begins with a ship sailing for Harper's Island, far from Seattle. There are a beautiful bride, a handsome groom, and a group of friends invited to the island to celebrate the wedding. Everyone was immersed in laughter and blessings. In this strong sense of happiness, the story contains the little girl Madison's practical jokes-Red Finger, Abby who is uneasy to return to her hometown, Tracy's untimely phone call from her ex-boyfriend, Harper's Island murder that everyone talked about seven years ago, and suddenly gloomy weather. Start to create all kinds of suspense, the atmosphere gradually makes people feel depressed, which seems to indicate that the tone of the story will be like this.
The ship started, and the killing officially began. Tracy's cousin Ben tragically became the first victim. Instead of simply drowning Ben in the sea, the murderer tied him to the bottom of the boat with an oxygen mask. When the ship left, he hanged Ben alive under the propeller of the ship. The heinous technique shows the cruelty and complex psychology of the murderer, and the story is shrouded in terror.
When everyone arrived on the island, each character's different personality, unique psychology and different expressions gradually emerged. At the same time, the killing game named The Avengers began.
Uncle Marty, hacked to death alive, became the first victim to return to the island. Abby began to keep thinking about her mother who was killed by Wakefield seven years ago. She always feels uneasy-since she set foot in her hometown, she has received inexplicable mobile phone calls. The report posted on her mirror many years ago made Abby feel that something was wrong. It seems that wakefield, the murderer on the island, was still with her seven years ago. She is like a ghost. ...
Seeing that the strangeness and bloodiness of the story began to rise at this time, people's hearts of speculation and exploration were ready to move.
Episodes 3 and 4
Inside the characters, the relationship between them is so complicated.
I can't see who the murderer is, and I don't understand why the murderers kill one by one. There seems to be some connection, but where is the connection? Is it related to the wedding? ! Is this about Abby? ! I can't guess now. I always think that wakefield is not dead, but the murderer doesn't look like him. It should be someone who is inextricably linked with him. The murderer is in the crowd, but the more obvious it is, the more people suspect it is not. The most hidden and natural should be the cruel murderer.
In fact, the era of guessing the murderer is basically over now. Guess right and guess wrong is nothing more than whether my judgment is correct when I am more interested in the final outcome. So what on earth pushes a person's behavior to such a cruel level? There must be a reason. It's not so much Henry and Tracy's wedding as Abby's. Because while killing the guests, things in the story always intentionally or unintentionally protect Abby from harm, of course, not including the mental damage to her.
The sheriff obviously hides some skeletons in his closet. If he is willing to tell them, maybe the killing will stop and the story will develop in another direction, but this is not allowed in suspense dramas. The TV series continues to be full of bloody scenes, and people around them mysteriously disappear and die one after another. This is the charm of suspense. Everyone seems to be a suspect and every detail is necessary.
Everyone is complicated and has his own inner world and personality characteristics, so he has a colorful world. I think it is also a good study to look at the results brought by their personalities while guessing the murderers.
Episodes 5 and 6
What bothers me most now is that little girl named Madison. Her faint appearance is very uncomfortable. What is the moral of the screenwriter? Why do you want to arrange such a little girl whose psychological age is so inconsistent with her physical age? ~ Increase the horror of the plot or is there some hint in it? From the beginning, when she put the magnifying glass in the sun and the snail tried to light it, she felt that she was doing a strange thing intentionally or unintentionally: she stood in the shade of the perineum and stood by her mother's bed and asked if anyone had died here. She will talk about the words of death with tarot cards. After grandpa's death, she will play a game of stacking cans with JD. Everyone thinks JD is the murderer ... Maybe she will do more incredible things in the future, but Madison is really evil. In the story, Madison answers JD why she has a key. She said that no one would pay attention to children. Is this the child's fluky psychology, or do we lack the wording to pay attention to children now? Then, by extension, can it be said that if children are not properly guided to grow up, they will move towards themselves? Why does a mystery always have an evil child? ! I think they will have a heavy burden, which reminds me of the cursed children. Many horror films or suspense films take children as gimmicks to add points to the plot. But won't this have a psychological shadow on these children? Although the plot needs this feeling, I always think that the children's world is better filled with sunshine and joy, which is more conducive to growth.
Here digress, back to the plot, people who came to the island continue to be killed, and the sense of rhythm is strengthening. No one knows who will die next and how. On the island, many people have ulterior motives. Everyone has their own ulterior motives, and everyone may be suspected. But one fact prevailed. I am looking forward to the real causal relationship behind the truth.
Episodes 7 and 8
As more people die, the people attending the wedding are ready to pack up and return to Seattle. Madison, this is a bizarre disappearance. Abby got a call saying that Madison would die if one of them tried to escape from the island. Everyone began to panic, even thinking of Madison, and people's fragility and selfishness were exposed. Even self-destructive and conceited people have fears, such as fear of death, fear of deception and fear of taking responsibility.
Seeing this, I think of a sense of responsibility and justice. Generally speaking, only with a sense of responsibility can we drive ourselves forward, feel that many meaningful things need to be done by ourselves, feel the value and significance of our own existence, and truly gain people's trust and respect. Self-centeredness is selfish, but it can make people think of others everywhere. It is God, not man, who sacrifices himself. Showiness and vanity are the deepest human nature, but we should always have a sense of responsibility anyway, because now we need a sense of responsibility. Just like Carl, his decision has infected many people, not intimidation and pressure, but a real sense of responsibility. Abby is also brave and responsible. Although she was one of the victims, she never escaped. She will face up to the problem and actively find ways to solve it. Comfort the people around you and bravely take on everything you can.

At the end of the tenth episode, Sheriff Charlie Mills died, the chubby sheriff. He traded his life for Jimmy's life, just for his dear daughter Abby. ...
Maybe it's because of our education. Some people think that Americans are born liberals and have indifferent family values. When their children grow up, they will never contact their parents again ... this is actually wrong. Love for relatives is the innate nature of human beings. Even Americans who have reopened are no exception. The father's love in the film is real and touching. Tracy's father, Thomas Wellington, is the father of the bride and a real estate tycoon. He is a stubborn old man with a conservative character. He loves his two daughters very much and wishes them all the best. The eldest daughter is married to a poor man, and the youngest daughter is going to marry a poor man, which is unbearable for him. Mr. Wellington is used to solving problems in his own way. He likes to be dominant, strong and selfish. He will stop his daughter's wedding at all costs, persuade her, satirize Henry, buy off Tracy's ex-boyfriend Hunter and destroy their feelings. But everything he does comes from his love. He wants his daughter to be happier. There are scenes in the story where he and Tracy are chased by Wakefield. Even if he is seriously injured, he will be desperate to protect his daughter.
Sheriff Mills, Abby's father, as the sheriff of Harper's Island, seven years ago, he managed to stop Wakefield's atrocities and sent her to other places to protect Abby. Now, Abby came back to attend the wedding, and the sheriff protected his daughter in his own way, even paying his own life.
From a man's point of view, a father gives his children strength, self-reliance, self-improvement and tolerance. Sometimes fatherly love is overbearing, serious and strong. Although my father is not good at expressing, their love is sincere, touching and warm. Their daughter's safety, or anything else related to their children's happiness, is what they strive for. Fatherly love is as great as maternal love.
