Gareth and Stefan continue their examination of the works of Douglas Adams with the Quintessinal phase, the last of the Douglas Adams sourced pieces of the Hitchhikers Guide. There are two ways you can go with this piece – take the material as it is, or how a later regretful author might have imagined it. This version travels the later road encountering the same revisionist problems that came with George Lucases star wars.
Like a bad night on the booze, there is no changing what happened – there is only the living with the consequences. Go eat a greasy breakfast and make the best of it.
None the less beyond too much racing towards an ending that doesn’t warrant rushing towards this is a remarkably faithful rendition of the book. Maybe it’s fitting that there really isn’t a definitive ending to the Hitchhikers Guide, knowing that somewhere out in the multiverse Arthur is still trying to find a decent cup of team.
