   Summary

   Stanley's brows furrowed as he thought back on it. There hadn't been a loading screen, had there?

   No, there hadn’t been. Thinking about it now, Stanley couldn't remember anything that would normally signal a reset, save for feeling like he had.

   So, they weren't in a game. It was strange, as Stanley wasn't sure exactly how they had stopped being in a game, but weirder things had happened in the parable.

   -

   After a seemingly endless string of loops of the same story, Stanley and The Narrator were quick to notice when something was different. The changes were subtle, but they held implications for the very nature of The Parable! What does their story mean, if it isn't a video game? What are the conventions of this new medium? And perhaps most importantly, what will the age rating be?

   Summary

   Stanley is no longer moved by any of the Endings, driving the Narrator to try something new. To her surprise, she discovers that she quite enjoys "ending" Stanley... in the flesh.

   (Extremely gratuitous genderbent Narrator and Stanley have a day at the beach and it gets spicy)

   Summary

   After the Skip Ending, the Narrator is shaken and stumbles over his scripts. Stanley supports him by filling in where the Narrator fumbles and following the story to the Freedom Ending, which Narry didn’t expect, but he does appreciate it. Stanley begins to finally see what the Narrator’s story has been about.
