It's a tragedy. Alas, he does not. Although, aside from Polonius, I will tell you who dies and how, if you wish to know. Would you like to know?

Then again, if I tell you how Hamlet and a couple of other main characters died, that wud ruin the interest and excitement.

I've actually noticed that we've started to connect through this back and forth chat about Shakespeare. Hehheh

Although, I do wonder what scenarios we could put the couple in? I mean, the only original character I've used through a whole rp was Wizzer and it had to do with him getting revenge on Mooch for all the abuse.

Speaking of "Manchurian Candidate", I actually have/had this one idea for a fan fic, somewhat to mostly based on the novel's plot/idea.

The idea was that, one day, Lupus is walking around the barn, not paying attention, when he accidentally bumps into at least Malinda, (who cud be reading a book). She gets knocked over and loses her grip on the book. Lupus, being a gentledog, apologizes, and asks if there's anything he can do to make it up for her. She kindly, (maybe), tells him to go do something, that doesn't have much to do with the Heartbreakers. Then, he comes back and asks if there's anything more he can do if she'd like anything more to be done. She notices that he's willing to do more. She then tells him to go do something else. And while he's gone, she puts a spell on him, that, when a certain word or action is said/done, Lupus is at the mercy of Malinda's orders, (like Raymond Shaw in "The Manchurian Candidate" when he plays solitaire and gets to the Queen of Diamonds). So, Malinda, (and at least Diana), start to use Lupus to do the will/bidding/work of the Heartbreakers. Before this word or action is said/done, Lupus seems to be his normal self. But, when that word or action is said/done, he seems to be in a bit of a trance. Eventually, Shadow, Clayton, Kendra, and the others learn what's up, and eventually free Lupus of the spell. (I don't think you want to know how Ray was freed of the brainwashing in the novel. But, it's definitely not how they'll free him from it.)

Would you like to know how Ray, (as I sometimes call him), is freed from the brainwashing?

Ray wasn't the only soldier to be brainwashed, (the book's setting is during the Korean War/Cold War). His whole brigade/group/section was captured and brainwashed by Communists. However, one of his fellow comrades, one that goes by the name of Captain Ben Marco, (mostly just Ben or Ben Marco), eventually snapped out of the brainwashing effects least months after their return to USA. Ben then makes a plan to use Ray's brainwashed condition to take out his mother, (who worked alongside the Communists in their plan, not exactly expecting Ray to be brainwashed), Johnny Iselin, (his step-father), and I think Yen Lo, (the leader of the Communists), just as Johnny is about to become either Senator or President. He's able to kill each of these targets during the ceremony b4 Johnny is inaugurated either as Senator or President, using a sniper rifle from a high, shaded area of the building/room. Once this is done, Ben gives Ray his next and final orders, gives him a pistol, with some ammo in it. Ray then goes into a room, (that he was sniping near), and shoots himself. (Apparently, it seemed like the only way to take care of the brainwashing.) (It's historical fiction.)

It saved, not only the rest of America, but also Ray, from himself. Once someone wud ask him to play some solitaire, he was no longer himself, and the brainwashing effect began.
