Next, you need a hurdle for your hero to overcome; a mountain that can’t be climbed, or a girl or guy that’s out of their league. Lastly, there must be a climax and a resolution; a sequence of events that leads up to a bated-breath moment where the story unfolds from unknown to known. The resolution is where the premise is realized, and the audience is given the satisfaction of closure.
