| Cue | Notes |
| Make the audience work for their meal without realizing it | Don’t give them 4, give them 2+2. Let the audience figure things out without telling them |
| Make me care | A good story gives you a reason to want to know more or what will happen next |
| Everyone has a bar | You can make a seemingly snobby character likable, as long as their personal needs are met |
Summary
You need to care about a story. A story should constantly dangle the possibility of a resolution in your face and not give it to you until the very end.
