The Plot (narrative device)

Often times, some characters, main cast or otherwise, go against the narrative structure by using their abilities to avoid being in unfavorable situations, or would otherwise break the story. That is when the plot, which manifests itself as a fat, bald, muscular man in a wife beater from the Bronx, kicks in and knocks said characters in line. This is usually accomplished by a massive punch that knocks offending characters back into the ideal position, or prevents them from doing what would logically happen. This is usually followed up by the plot calling the offender a "butthole" before disappearing off the screen.
