   Summary

   In an alternate act five, Siffrin breaks in a different way than canon.

   He and Loop go around and around and around. They both know what wish was made. They both know what traps them here. They both know what the condition is which, upon reaching the Head Housemaiden, so guttingly fails to be fulfilled. But Loop won't say it outright. And Siffrin won't look at it.

   Until, eventually, there's nowhere left to look.
