The Taming of a Shrew is the alternate ending for The Taming of the Shrew. They both have similar concepts‚ but we find the major difference in Kate’s speech at the end.

She realises the faults of her ways and goes on to explain‚ differently in both‚ why women should be tamed. In the original The Taming of the Shrew‚ “Katherine explains the relationship of husband and wife by analogy to

Four laps in‚ Karishma was definitely feeling the burn. She couldn’t breathe; it felt like her lungs had been filled with lead. She slowed to an awkward walk-jog behind the shack‚ whenever she was out of the professor’s line of sight‚ but even that wasn’t enough to heal the stitch in her side. It wasn’t that she was obese‚ because she wasn’t‚ but she certainly had some pudge that made the whole task arduous.
