The bad guy is revealed because he used his cane on the CORRECT side. That's what makes me wonder about the scriptwriters for the original. (I know this from experience: I broke my left heel. When I was finally able to walk with a cane, I was told to use it on my right side. Believe it or not, this works.)

Author's Response:

Oh, sheesh. I did NOT know that.

So in the film, the one shown to G-Force before they left base, when President Altan uses the cane on his left side, he's using it on the wrong side? *smacks head into wall* And the Hawk Leader is being intelligent in using the cane on the appropriate side. Where's my chocolate?

I guess Altan wasn't one to listen to medical advice. I'm assuming (yes I KNOW about 'assuming') :P that centuries of trial and error have taught doctors and other medical persoannel the best side to keep a cane on with leg injuries.

My family does have two friends who regularly use canes. But in both cases, their conditions mean they use them for support and balance, and they both switch their canes from hand to hand.

Thank you so much for your review! :) :)
