There's two possible endings after the close of this, too-- the happy one where Bertie warms up to it quick-like and falls equally head-over-heels, and the not-so-happy one where he's guiltily going through the motions because he wants Jeeves to stay and wants Jeeves to be happy. And maybe a third (or combination of the two) where Jeeves works out what's happened and it all goes horribly wrong. Maybe in the midst of a painful rift, Bertie finally gets his epiphany, or maybe he doesn't. And maybe he does and it all works out okay, or maybe he does and it still doesn't get fixed. I prefer them to get their happily-ever-after, of course, but I like playing with things that will mean it won't come without a fight.
