A Good, Bad or Average Theory What's The Difference?

[Holly Goodhead]

It's easy to say I've got a theory but how many can stand up to scrutiny where all the pieces fit together?

Johns theory... Also Angelos
Maddie left the apartment by the front door and was abducted on the street.

I think ‘hypothesis’ is a better description in this case.

“The Difference Between Hypothesis and Theory

A hypothesis is an assumption, an idea that is proposed for the sake of argument so that it can be tested to see if it might be true. In the scientific method, the hypothesis is constructed before any applicable research has been done, apart from a basic background review. You ask a question, read up on what has been studied before, and then form a hypothesis. A hypothesis is usually tentative; it's an assumption or suggestion made strictly for the objective of being tested.

A theory, in contrast, is a principle that has been formed as an attempt to explain things that have already been substantiated by data. Because of the rigors of experimentation and control, it is understood to be more likely to be true than a hypothesis is” (Merriam-Webster dictionary).

Holly reckons she's solved it so hypothesis doesn't fit at all

But that's their theory not mine. 

I'll ask the question again will you accept John and Myster as individual impartial judges on my theory?

[Mr Gray]

Absolutely  not... Why should I
John has a different  theory... Which I don't agree with

Yes

We're not talking about John's theory and we're not talking about John alone but John and Myster to review my theory?

[Holly Goodhead]

Yes

Good, thanks.

I think most will have already seen Myster is bipartisan in that he concluded the fingerprint did actually originate from GNR officer Nelson da Costa and not my abductor suspect as I speculated.   

[Mr Gray]

Let them review it. If John says this is sensational ...incredible... Obviously I would be impressed.
The fact is you told OG your theory at least two months ago and nothings happened... Why

I'm pretty sure I've heard police officers, not just in this case but others too, refer to hypothesising and theories about what happened and who was involved.

Just suppose for this argument's sake,Holly's theory had some standing,what would you in the short term expect of OG?
