The sort of resolution would have to be when the gun accidentally went off and killed Richard. the big thing about that is that he was supposed to be very important because he was going to find a cure for something and have a happy life and all that good stuff.

The theme of the story would have to be that guns do not kill people , people kill people. This is true because in the story a character kills a another they say it wasn't my fault,or something to that effect. It just shows that people can't and won't take responsibility to what they do.
