What if the Jaqueline Bissett stewardess had not gone banging on the bathroom door? Maybe the bomb doesn't go off? The guy was calming down when Dean Martin was talking to him, and since he knew he had failed - the insurance was no good, etc - maybe he would have given up.

Of course, the bomb HAD TO go off, Because Drama.

Meanwhile, the guy who kept interfering, and wound up almost suffocating, hopefully went to prison for interfering with a flight crew.
