I really liked this show. But, in complete opposition of most of the reviewers here, my favorite episode was the last one.
I feel like a lot of people missed the whole point of the mini-series, which was the last episode. The consequences. The reality. What is left when the storm passes and the cameras leave the room.
It would be easy to go for a happy ending, or even bittersweet. This was like a punch in the stomach, well deserved and realistic.
I don't think it matters whether or not she should've gone to jail, or what's the age of consent, or if you're European or not (I'm European and this show didn't bother me a bit - It's called context, people). It wasn't about the law. It was about the consequences of your actions and the fact that he was just a kid and she was an adult in a position of power. He was allowed to have a crush on a teacher - She should have known better.
