Correct Answer: Plots to dispose of him came


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The original phrase "plots to dispose him came" contains a grammatical error. The correct phrase should include the preposition "of" after dispose to convey the intended meaning.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Plots to dispose of him came to nothing."
