I wonder what would happen if Stella didn't die? What if she helped Ivan with the puzzle.If Julia didn't solve the puzzle what would happen?Would they make it to the zoo.

I wonder the same plc6. What if Ivan never made a deal with stella? what would happen if they never found Ruby? what if Ivan never went to the zoo? would Ivan still be in the cage at big top mall/circus? what happen Julia never figured out the puzzle? My favorite part was when Julia meet Ivan at the zoo.
