    Here's an idea

    This is absolute fictional speculation. Lots of disbelief has to suspended in order to read on any further. That's the disclaimer.

    A friend of mine thought of this at work one night this week. What if it somehow turned out that Wesley had been out of touch with everybody, and someone else had started this with no knowledge on his part. Like a saboteur from another program, or the Chameleon from Spider-Man. Someone had taken his place, or kept him out of contact.

    Wes shows up in Ames this week, people look at him "funny" when he moves back into his apartment, and he has no idea any of this happened.

    Where would things go from there?

    Hasn't he given a couple of interview with the local papers already?

    My friend was bored. He was creating a wild scenario that would make the whole thing seem different.

    That was the idea with suspending disbelief. It's not really plausible, unless ISU was living in a comic book, movie, or some other source of pop fiction.

    You mean his doppelganger met with McD. I'm on board with this.

    Someone met with coach, but who met? And who met who?

    Maybe McD's a pod-person and he's making this whole thing up! Maybe... McD AND Wes are both pod-people!

    We'll look back at this someday and call it the Invasion of the Wesley-Snatchers.

    The reality is comic-book enough for me. Not sure why we have to rewrite the story.
