Culture: Noora ends up on the website ung.no, just like Eva did in season 1. But this time the series shows that you can also get information about alcohol, being drugged, and sexual assault.



Cinematography: The lingering wide shot of Noora in bed really brings home the fact that she is all alone, isolated, and afraid.



Blink and you miss it: Among the posters above her bed is a subway map of Madrid.



Blink and you miss it: Nico’s cover image on Facebook is Gordon Gekko from the 1987 movie Wall Street.



Culture: Norway loves its fish cakes, that’s for sure.



Subtext: That Noora is super specific about her food, she’s eating two fish cakes, not one, not three, and she’s eating them at five, all of that is a sign that her eating disorder has flared up again.



Subtext: And in a sweet role reversal, this time it’s Vilde who recognizes that Noora isn’t feeling very well, isn’t eating properly, so she’s helping Noora, like Noora helped her earlier in the season.



Subtext: William says that he would have killed Nico if Nico had fucked up his relationship with Noora. But what William doesn’t know is that Nico sort of already has, and this makes Noora decide not to tell William, because she doesn’t want William to assault his brother. Not because Noora cares for Nico, but because she doesn’t want William to get into more trouble, considering he’s already smashed a bottle over the head of a Yakuza guy.
