I am honored.  Thank you.

On to another suggestion.  As you have already set out in the story,
Doolittle sends money back to his wife in England to provide for her.
However, her affair with Waite becomes more public, eventually reaching the
ears of young Aurora.  Already in love with Doolittle, and now angered at
the adulterous actions of Mrs. Doolittle (how could she treat such a fine
man so horribly?), Aurora fakes her own kidnapping, and eventually joins up
with Doolittle.

NEW SUBPLOT:  Aurora tells Doolittle of his wife's infidelity.  Although he
understands, he is none the less disappointed and decides to discontinue his
self-imposed support payments.  When Waite hears about Aurora and Doolittle,
he is incensed.  But he is even more upset about Doolittle cuting off his
support payments to Mrs. Doolittle (Waite has been "counseling" Mrs.
Doolittle on her marital situation at his normal hourly fee ever since
Doolittle left months ago.  Once Doolittle stops payments, Mrs. Doolittle
can no longer afford to continue employing Waite on her case and Waite loses
one of his most profitable clients).
