They decided for the most soap opera like ending, LOL.
There were also some rather dark versions which I liked. It was very interesting to see the ideas people came up with (whether soppy

or morbid) and I think there were stories that were more inventive than the one Universal picked as the winner.
I considered for a moment if I should take part, too, just for fun, but I'm lazy and my story would have probably turned out very morbid and maybe it would have contained a lot of black humor. I had to write short stories at university and the prof said: "That's awesome... but meeeaaaaaaan." Maybe poor Patrick is lucky that I didn't mess around with his fate.
I'm not impressed by the original story but if it triggers people's creativity I don't feel the urge to say something nasty about it at this point.
