Even applying the time skip options I don't think getting to the end of the school year was ever the goal... Which is why its a good time to be ending now at a semester end which seems more natural than later mid way through one.
I don't remember where I heard it, but I thought the main story was supposed to go through MC's first year in college. Ending the story proper with 12 feels very premature.

Doesn't the idea of Stephen bribing the doctors go against the point of his Episode 10 flashback? Where he used to be a "good guy" or whatever?
Well there is also the possibility that at the time Stephen was heavily influenced by someone else such as his parent(s) or grandparent(s). He would have still been quite young after all. This other person would be the one leading Stephen down a path towards corruption. There is that mysterious phone call to Priscilla who might be that person or someone else under that person's influence. There's quite a few things in the game that could be explained by there being a mysterious master mind. The only real problem is that it's getting kind of late for introducing such a character.

Idk if we need someone in the shadows to explain how Stephen became such a piece of shit. To explain how the tuition scheme was setup, sure, but not bribing the doctors to tell Jade she's barren (assuming that's even the case).

As far as Priscilla goes... I don't know if I ever cared about that particular "mystery". I'm willing to believe it's Quinn at this point, introducing another character this late in the game is a problem, as you say.

Unless DPC employs longer time skips, we won't be getting to the end of the school year any time soon. At most, we've done roughly a month per episode. But there's still the epilogues, however he handles them...
Sage's path cannot fail to cover the moment of graduation. And since it is an important point, it would be risky to treat it only as an epilogue.

I could see it as the beginning of her epilogue, not the majority of it. But I guess that depends on how far into the future he goes with them, I'd really hate it if only the end of the year is covered. Not all games handle jumping ahead years that well though.

Dawe? If by pillow talk you mean him mumbling something after he's been knocked out.

Although I don't think anyone will get pregnant by MC until episode 14, I remembered preview №14.
Why is Jade so serious? Is she going to reveal she's pregnant? :unsure:

My current thinking is that Stephen bribed the doctors into lying because if Jade had found out about his vasectomy the marriage would have been annulled and Stephen wanted Jade's money to fund his ambitions. Keeping Jade's money was also the reason he agreed to adopt Sage and Tybalt.

If Stephen has the video he will blackmail Jade into accepting a 90-10 split of their assets or he will ruin her career by exposing her affair with a student. If he doesn't have the video and MC got Jade pregnant, she can use that to prove the doctors lied and Stephen's vasectomy will be revealed leading to the marriage being annulled, Jade getting all the money and MC becoming Sage's and Tybalt's step-dad.

Why has Stephen had a vasectomy? Because he got a woman named Monica pregnant before he married Jade.
Did Jade make a lot of money? As far as I understand, Stephen earned almost all of his wealth from his previous job as a trader. Then he earned more, but Jade is just a professor.
