If you're referring to the hotel meeting between FMC and Brian, okay, I understand that you might see it as forced. However, in reality, it was Katrin who asked FMC to go to the meeting because Brian wanted to explain why he left her three years ago.
Stefano and I thought a lot about this scene. Given FMC’s past and her almost obsessive attachment to Brian, it made sense for her to accept the meeting. But that doesn’t mean she intended to cheat on MC.
Also, if you remember, when FMC tells MC about meeting Brian, she clearly says she has a plan to interfere with Brian and Katrin’s relationship. Again, it all comes down to interpretation.
It wasn’t easy to weave all the narrative paths together without ambiguity, but it was necessary to keep the story coherent. Did we succeed? I don’t know—some of you say yes, some say no.
One thing is certain: our goal isn’t to avoid hot scenes, but in this case, we had to structure the story this way to maintain logical consistency.
