Todorov suggested that the conventional narrative structure of a story has 5 stages to it:
Equilibrium - any potentially opposing forces are in balance.
Disruption - A series of events disrupts the equilibrium.
Reconciliation - recognising that there has been a disruption.
Attempt to repair - the characters try to fix the disruption.
Reinstatement of the equilibrium - Situation is resolved and a conclusion is announced.
