Obsession Ending Explained
Williams is wrapping up surgery on congenital twins when the first episode starts. He is well on his way to becoming one of the most important people in British medicine because of his work in the field. His father-in-law Edward has been a driving force in introducing him to all the people in the parliament in the hopes that he grows steadily within the country’s political system. His family believes wholeheartedly in his talents and his approach to life, supporting him everywhere.
His wife, Ingrid, tells him he must attend this party with her, but she might be late because of work. Furthermore, their son has a new girlfriend now, and they are all excited to meet her and see what she is like. Ingrid says that she might be there at the party they are going to. When William is drinking his wine and speaking to someone, he glances at a woman who looks enigmatic enough to lose track of what he is saying and makes his way to her.
They go to the bar, and we see him feeding her an olive, which gives us an indication that the tensions between them are just starting to rise. William later finds out that this is Anna, and even though the attraction is undeniable, it would be inappropriate to pursue this relationship. But when he calls Jay, Anna is able to get his number, and they start a texting relationship. She calls him later and tells him to meet her at a flat. The two have sex, and this becomes the beginning of a tumultuous illicit affair.
William starts lying to his family about his trips to medical conferences and makes excuses at work. Even though Anna knows that Jay really loves her, she continues this situationship with William. When Jay and Anna go to Paris, William follows them there and even tries to find out which room she lives in. The two have sex when she goes to ask him to back off, and when she gets back to Jay, she lets him know that it may be time for them to go home now.
However, William has other ideas. He goes to their room and masturbates to the scent of her lingering on one of the pillows. He is completely bewitched by her. When he gets back home, Ingrid starts to suspect something has been going wrong in their relationship, but she brushes it off when they find out during the engagement party that he has been faithful all his life and won’t do anything wrong. Even though Ingrid has been off the hook, someone has been messaging William about this affair and threatening to expose him.
Jay has other ideas about this relationship. He knows that Anna has been hiding many things about her life, including but limited to how her brother died and what caused it. William knows what happened, which becomes a real power trip for him because it’s the one thing he doesn’t have. What he doesn’t get is that Anna completely surrenders to him enough to say yes to Jay’s marriage proposal only if he allows it.

All these doubts are also culled when Anna has a conversation with Sally, and she reveals that she has been sending these messages to her father in an attempt to get him to confess to an affair. Anna explains that she has nothing to worry about and can rest easy about her father. Among all this important wedding planning, the two still continue their arrangement of meeting up and having sex. No one catches any wind of this. Apart from being busy with all the wedding planning, there is also an air of celebration no one wants to break.
At Jay’s bachelor party, he expresses his cold feet about this wedding and the doubts he has about Anna with William. While most of his speech was extremely supportive, a single sentence changed everything for Jay. The latter follows his father to a flat, where he finds him and Anna in a very compromising position. He is horrified and harrowed by what he sees, and as he steps back, he slips on the railing and falls to his death. His death bashed on the staircases. Anna leaves the scene without a single word and doesn’t even show up at her ex-fiancee’s funeral.
William still doesn’t learn his lesson and goes searching for Anna and finds her in France enjoying the sea wind at the resort she was supposed to have her honeymoon in. This doesn’t distract her from all the pain she feels for and has caused Jay. When the two meet once again, he reveals that he would do this all over again, and she cannot handle it anymore. The show ends with her in a therapy session with a male therapist, ready to repeat this cycle all over again.
Obsession is currently streaming on Netflix. Do you think Anna will repeat her actions with the therapist again? Let us know in the comments, and read our review of the show below.
