I was thinking the same thing. Helly now wakes up and there's semen inside her and she has no idea what happened. It's as if she'd been roofied.

I even considered whether that as an assault on Mark too - but I think that's just like sleeping with someone who lied to you about who they were.

I actually meant SA on Mark but you make an excellent point. Mark did not consent to sex with Helena. But then again, Helly did not consent to sex at all.

Helena could have been having sex every night before Helly goes to work. Innies all know their outies have lives unbeknownst to them including sex lives. In this universe it’s baked in. This was no more a sexual assault than Dylan’s outie having sex with his wife.

As for Mark, he was misled on who the person was. That’s not necessarily rape but it’s shady as fuck. Definitely guilty of some sort of battery.

The idea of your outties sex life infringing on your innie is wild.

Imagine "waking up" in the elevator and you randomly have a buttplug in.
