Research and Planning: Narrative - Todorov.

Guy walking down the street - Equilibrium.
Lady jumping off roof - Disruption.
He finds her shoe and looks up to see her - Recognition.
They have coffee - Reparation.
She chases him and he kicks off - Reparation.
Guy walks off - New Equilibrium.
She runs on to the roof and does the same again - New Equilibrium.

Who causes disruption? The girl on the roof.
Who resolves narrative? The guy by walking off.
Can you link to representation? Stereotypical that a young, white, good looking man has the resolution of the narrative.
