Design how the story exploits the protagonist flaw: Protagonist: {{protagonist}} Core Flaw: {{flaw}} Story Goal: {{goal}} Flaw Exploitation Plan: 1. FLAW ESTABLISHMENT - First scene showing flaw in action - How it creates problems - Initial blindness to it 2. FLAW VS. GOAL - How flaw specifically blocks goal - The irony of self-sabotage - Mounting frustration 3. ESCALATING CONSEQUENCES - Scene 1: Minor consequence - Scene 2: Moderate consequence - Scene 3: Major consequence - Scene 4: Crisis consequence 4. MOMENT OF TRUTH - When character sees flaw clearly - What forces this recognition - Emotional impact 5. FLAW CONFRONTATION - Choice to change or not - Action proving transformation - Flaw reframed as strength (or not) Provide specific scene beats for each stage.
