User blog comment:BigFanofEntertainment/Sleuth or Consequences - Alternate Ending (Remake)/@comment-31789809-20171017191945

Hmmmmmmm...... this is good in its own right, but I can’t help but feel that these rewrites sort of miss the original purpose of the original episode. For instance, in this rewrite, I just cannot shake this feeling that you get too caught up on the fact that the sisters acted a tad bit inconsiderate when there should be some consideration as to why exactly that kind of dialogue was written into the story. I mean, even if it wasn’t exactly pleasant to watch the sisters tease Lincoln, it provided an excellent motive for Lucy to hide the fact that she clogged the toilet. I guess what I’m trying to say is when you just make everything tied up and give everyone a happy ending, it sort of defeats any sort of drama the original material had and honestly makes everything seem sappy. But maybe I’m just a fan of bittersweet endings so maybe I’m just biased.
