Answer

Good thing he didn't go with the audience.

[NellyLunatic1980]

This question didn't take a whole lot of thinking on my part. I knew that Robert Louis Stevenson wrote "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".

I also knew that asking the audience would be a dursting waiting to happen. I knew they would pick B, probably thinking that both of them were Jane Austen characters.
