Looking at the ending of “the lady or the tiger,” it is clear that the tiger came out from the opened door because the princess was a reckless, selfish and jealous woman. “ This savage king had a beautiful daughter. She was as wild and reckless as her father.” This show the princess was reckless. “ The princess had more power and influence than any person who had ever been interested in a case, and she knew behind which door waited the tiger, and behind which door stood the lady” “She was a wild and savage princess whose soul was burning with jealousy and hate. The princess had lost her lover. Should another woman have him?” these show how the princess selfish was. The young man was the princess lover. The princess not only did not worry about him, but also look forward to more than before in the case. This also shows the princess was selfish. “She knew more than which door hid the lady. She also knew who the lady was! And she knew that the lady was one of the loveliest and most beautiful ladies in the king’s court.” This shows the princess was jealous her. “The princess had seen or thought that she saw the lady looking at her lover, she had seen them talking together. So the princess hated the woman who silently waited behind the door.” This also shows the princess was jealous. Therefore, it is clear that she would have let her lover chose the tiger instead of the lady at the end.
