Hope everyone had fun and thanks to all for your submissions! You were all so smart, most everyone just missed one or two at the most! A few words:
- Any version of “Gideon didn’t know the reason for the stutter” was considered correct.
- You didn’t have to put that Robert Greenaway was a policeman, just his name and that he was killed in the line of duty.
- The explanation of the ‘second script’ can be found HERE in my interview with director Hanelle Culpepper back in April.
