WHAT. She... ends up with the boy's adoptive dad? And not Dan? WHAT???
That's TERRIBLE.
"Do you mean to say you're so terribly dense that you don't know Dan Pritchard is in love with you?" Maria demands at one point, effectively ventriloquizing the audience's frustration. --I literally laughed out loud.
Mind-boggling. It's like the director and team were as breathtakingly obtuse as they've made Sally be. It's like they have all the ingredients for a beautiful cake but manage to mix them up into something awful instead.
Here's my rewrite: while Sally's ineffectively pursuing Phil, Dan makes himself genuinely (i.e., without scheming intent) a friend of Phil's. Then Phil gets sick, elects Dan as the guardian in case of his own death, and BOOM. Path's clear, baby, now you can marry the guy you actually love!
