  • Theme: Looking Inward
  • Hook: Sean and Carter are best friends. 
  • Inciting incident (disrupts normalcy): Sean eats the last cookie; it was Carter’s favorite kind.
  • Turning point 1 (change of plans): Sean does not apologize, so Carter says it’s fine, but he really is hurt about it. 
  • Point of no return (major victory or failure): Carter does not talk to Sean for a couple days, almost ruining their friendship.
  • Major setback: Sean is unbothered by the fact that Carter stopped talking to him. 
  • Turning point 2 (new truth): Carter is hurt because the last cookie was the last cookie his grandma made before she died of a sudden heart attack. 
  • Climax (win or lose): Carter offers Sean a cookie as a peace offering, and Sean gets food poisoning because Carter “poisoned” the cookie as revenge.
