Act III Plot Point Overview
The last four plot points, in order, are BIG YES, NO, BIG NO, FINAL YES.
BIG YES - The Hero has achieved a substantial victory.
George McFly defeats Biff in BACK TO THE FUTURE.
In JAWS, Brody, Quint and Hooper head back to the shallows to lure the shark, whoʼs traveling with three barrels
Rose has finally made it onto a lifeboat and is being lowered towards the water in TITANIC. And then. . .
NO - The Hero suffers a setback; itʼs not fatal, but itʼs really, really bad:
In TITANIC, Rose jumps out of the lifeboat because she wonʼt leave Jack behind.
In JAWS, the boat blows its engine.
In BACK TO THE FUTURE, Marty tries to give Emmett a note about the future that will save his life
(saving Emmettʼs life is one of Martyʼs goals); however, Emmett rips the note up.
BIG NO - things go from really bad to much worse. . . disaster. . . failure. The situation is hopeless.
The TITANIC is breaking apart and Jack and Rose are being chased by a murderous Cal Hockley. They
get away from him and now ride the Titanic down into the water.
Marty finally makes it BACK TO THE FUTURE after much difficulty only to arrive a few moments too late
to save Emmett.
The shark has seemingly killed Hooper, has eaten Quint and has wrecked the boat which is sinking fast.
What will our heroes do?
