Given the number of spoilers, I would say that the conspiracy circle has been talking a lot recently. On our side, each time we progress in the plot, we think we have a better overall picture of what is going on, but the next step, we have more doubts which call into question our certainties. Who did Monica meet, and upset in ep 1, the day everything went wrong for her? Perhaps this reasoning doesn't hold water, because it's Steeve who reveals this to her in the path of revenge, this path is not canonical, I have been told.
When we look at the whole picture, we try to reason logically by observing the clues and cross-referencing them. It feels like playing a board game like Cluedo (For those who don't know, it's a game in which players must discover among themselves who is the murderer of a crime committed in a mansion) My partner and I look at each other wondering: But who killed Colonel Mustard???
Anyway... When we look and put things into perspective, we wonder what role does each of the antagonists have in this game of power and humiliation, and what places do they occupy in this organization? At the top of the pyramid, there is this mysterious criminal organization which seems to target rich, influential women who are also very bitchy to those around them, by kidnapping them and making them disappear making them illegitimate, and which is supervised by Marcus, at least, outside the walls of farm 218. But the others??? Apart from perhaps the secretary (tits), and still, we expect to discover that she also has a role in this whole circus, everyone, from that big asshole Biff to the drunkest slum dweller, wants to see our bitchy heroine crawling on her knees. Philipp seems high in the hierarchy. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he was one of the instigators of Monica's downward spiral, just below Marcus. Biff and Steve seem more like pawns in the tabloid. Dick! Dick? I don't really know. He may not be part of the conspiracy. But still, perhaps he's there so that Monica can continue to fight and keep the hope of getting out, a bit like a piece of cheese for the mouse, while the cat observes the mouse with an amused look. Many are secondary pawns I think, like Fred, Julia, Alex, the two bastard bosses of the "Shiny Hole", the pimp bitch from the restaurant "Le Grand" etc...
There's one that we can't quite place on the board. Victoria! This sadistic and completely crazy bitch. She probably doesn't have the light on every floor, but if she's a pawn, she's like the armed arm for someone else, wreaking vengeance with hatred on their behalf. She is a kind of Doctor Josef Mengele...
ARG! Now I'm like Bob. My head hurts
