** Maybe the whole thing was a SecretTestOfCharacter -- Death was never really going to kill one of the children, and always intended to take Lou. But by letting him believe he'd kill a child in his place, Death makes Lou reveal his true colors, which, fortunately, means that of ''course'' he's not going to let the child die. Thus, he proves he's a good man when all is said and done, and gets to enter Heaven peacefully. Had Lou declined to save the kid, the ending might've been [[{{Hell}} much different]]...

* ValuesDissonance: Our hero is an eccentric old salesman in the big city who likes to buy ice cream for the local kids. Yeah, the late 1950's were a different time. In his defense, all those kids live in the same building as him, so their parents should know Lou pretty well.
