In an unexpected twist, Bianca finds herself trapped, held against her will by Reiss, who has orchestrated a disturbing plan

to keep her hidden until Sonia’s release. The ordeal begins when Bianca confronts Reiss about his suspicious behavior,

including a fresh head injury he can’t quite explain. Reiss dismisses her suspicions, claiming Bianca left him stranded in

the pub, only fueling her belief that something isn’t right.

Tensions escalate as Reiss admits that Bianca hit him with a candlestick during a heated argument, which only adds to his sense of betrayal and shame. However, instead of reporting the incident, Reiss decides to turn the tables, desperate to shield himself from further accusations. He justifies his actions as self-preservation, exhausted by constant suspicion and the damage to his reputation.

The story intensifies when Bianca realizes the severity of her situation. Chained to a wall, Bianca confronts Reiss about his motives, but he insists he’s only trying to protect himself and Sonia. Bianca’s pleas for freedom and her attempts to reason with him fall on deaf ears. Reiss, fixated on his plan, reveals that he intends to keep her there until Sonia is released, which could take months. Bianca’s protests and cries for help grow more desperate as she realizes just how trapped she is.

Bianca pushes Reiss to see reason, warning him that the police will come looking for her. However, Reiss dismisses her fears, convinced that everyone will think she has simply run away. Even as Bianca expresses her disbelief and panic, Reiss assures her that Sonia will be released soon, and everything will return to normal. He promises to make her confinement as comfortable as possible—going so far as to order a makeshift toilet for her—but Bianca is horrified, begging him to let her go immediately.

In a final unsettling exchange, Reiss leaves Bianca alone, suggesting that she take time to “reflect” on her situation. He implies that if she cooperates, things might go easier for her. His eerie calm contrasts sharply with Bianca’s fear and frustration. Left in the darkness, Bianca’s cries echo as she calls out for help, realizing that her nightmare has only just begun. Reiss’s twisted sense of justice reveals a disturbing side, as he believes that by keeping Bianca hidden, he’s securing the future he envisions—a future with Sonia by his side, Bianca out of the picture, and his own secrets safe from scrutiny.
