A Twisted Tragedy

Story is twisted-a tragedy as was the ballet Swan Lake. It was masterful that background music we hear is from the ballet as a foreshadowing of events.
FL realistically wouldn't accompany her former lover and his fiancee -who is an new acquaintance -while planning their wedding. Definitely not relatable. Also unrealistic that the FL would bring DNA results to mother of the ML without the father present. A modern approach would have been more interesting for me.
The toxic parent trope did have dire consequences- not for the older generations but for the lead characters who are indelibly traumatized by parents psychological and emotional abuse in their formative years and for their child. This series is a tragedy in the final scene they are living separate lives- there is no turning back in time - it would be unrealistic to expect a happy ending for the main characters.
