triking Vipers: Story Recap
Striking Vipers follows Danny, a man that finds himself bored at how mundane that life has become and is pulled to the wayside by the temptation that an online life tempts him with.
This comes in the form of his friend Karl, who after buying him a copy of the titular game, reminds him of the fun that they used to have together.
The game is played in virtual reality and due to the technology of it, players are able to feel all the virtual highs and lows of every impact, no matter what kind. There’s a reference to Tucker systems from Bandersnatch and the episode has clear allusions to San Junipero, though personally, I don’t believe that it matches up to the caliber of that.
Early on after diving back into it Danny and Karl begin a sexual relationship with one another in the VR world and the two become fixated on building a relationship together in this at the cost of their real world connections.
Striking Vipers: Ending Explained
In the final few scenes we see that Danny’s marriage appears to be stable after the birth of their child and that he and his wife love each other more than ever. As a gift, Danny’s wife gives him a box containing a VR disc that will allow him to return to the game. In return, Danny gives his wife a box for her wedding ring and we see that she goes out to a bar looking for a stranger to have a one night stand with.
It’s clear that in order to have a happy marriage the two have had to make sacrifices that will allow the other to live out their fantasy. The two will get the best of both worlds and within these rules that they have constructed both have a degree of freedom.
To me the episode highlights how perhaps in the modern world, modern relationships must adapt to the fact that temptation is more prevalent than ever due to the internet, however, we must never let this subsidize a real relationship as reality never lives up to the fantasy. Danny and Karl discover this and though I’ve seen many say that they are gay, I don’t think the episode is that black and white.
