"Sins of the Fathers" is yet another common phrase, originating in both the Bible and the ancient Greek dramas. But truth to be told, I fail to see why Mrs Jensen shouldn't be allowed to use it in her own context without being accused of plagiarism.

It would be like using a proverb in a title of your own - everyone would be familiar with it, and yet no one would call you unoriginal.

...Aaaand, I just might have several perfect sub-titles, for which I am sure that Mrs Jensen will readily accept for the next Gabriel Knight games:

"Gabriel Knight IV: Fools Rush In Where Angels Fear to Tread"
"Gabriel Kniht V: An Englishman's Home is his Castle"
"Gabriel Knight VI: Don't Teach Your Grandma to Suck Eggs"
"Gabriel Knight VII: All Work and No Play Makes Gabe a Dull Boy"

etc, etc...
