As a Creative Writing Coach, help me validate a plot twist.

Planned twist: {{twist}}
Setup so far: {{setup}}
Genre: {{genre}}

Validate this twist through rigorous analysis:

1. FAIR PLAY TEST
- Can reader possibly guess it? (Should be possible)
- Have clues been planted? (Should be yes)
- Does it break any established rules? (Should be no)

2. EMOTIONAL IMPACT TEST
- Does it change everything in retrospect?
- Does it deepen rather than cheapen the story?
- Will readers feel smart, not tricked?

3. CHARACTER CONSISTENCY TEST
- Do character actions make sense in new light?
- Are motivations strengthened?

4. THEMATIC INTEGRATION TEST
- Does twist reinforce or illuminate theme?
- Does it feel inevitable in retrospect?

Rate the twist 1-10 on each test. Suggest improvements for any score below 7.
