'''Results of Incident:''' "(The third script) reinstated much of the director's original script including the ending. Lamar Trotti ....found the first draft, written by Sternberg, "utterly impossible," but did not comment on this draft because the producer was already planning to ask for drastic revisions. Trotti found the second draft (the studio's) to be better then the first, but he was still concerned about how to represent the adulterous love affair (which is present in all three versions of the script) and the studio's version of the ending. Censors considered Sternberg's third draft an improvement upon the studio's version and approved it after minor revisions." | '''Results of Incident:''' "(The third script) reinstated much of the director's original script including the ending.
