With Salome at his side on horseback with a bolo in her left hand and her rage in the other. So this is the ending I want: Elias comes back from the dead. And Simoun just isn’t edgy enough (even with those dark glasses) to have that same spirit as Elias. You know what I’m still mad about? Elias dying in Noli. The ending we deserved – Elias (and Salome)’s revenge A good character like him deserves to be chilling on the beach and retiring. Instead of throwing it into the ocean, he runs off, boards a ship to Europe, and lives it up far away from the drama. Padre Florentino takes these treasures and tosses them into the ocean as a symbol of us not being ready for the transformative power of these riches but, hopefully, we will be in the future.Īn ending I pictured was: Padre Florentino makes a break for it with the treasure that Simoun leaves with him. He even hands the priest all his riches before finally passing away. The make-it-big endingĪt the end of the novel, Simoun/Ibarra find Padre Florentino and confesses his entire story to him.
She breaks in, convinces our dear Maria Clara to accompany her, and they take down their abusers (Salvi and Camorra) metaphorical (or maybe even literal, depending on how axed she is) guns a-blazing.
Juli is done with all of Padre Camorra’s creepy advances and finds some way to track the locket back to Maria Clara in the convent. So, one alternate ending is to bring these ladies some retribution. Many of us think that they deserved more than to be killed off in the unfortunate ways they did.
The demure Maria Clara and the hardworking Juli have received the short end of the stick in terms of the story with both of them dying because of the torment of some lustful priests (boo). Maria Clara and Juli are iconic women in Noli and El Fili.
