If Ishida's draft really contained that, then the staff probably scrapped it because they had removed all references to the play. Especially the removal of the reference that should have been in the first season's last episode was probably a major obstacle to keeping this ending.

While the first season aired, I always wondered whether their random changing of some scenes (even if these changes didn't gain them any time) would turn out fine, but in the end it bit them in the ass.
