Plot Wires

Not to be confused with Plot Screw, when the plot is forced to turn for the worse for no reason other than UnTrash Made It Happen.

This is when the plot gets warped to the point of getting stupid, confusing, or annoying. A reason for a plot to get wired and weird is because it got swamped in new information all at once, making it hard to follow what's going on in the story.

Plot Wires Plays
Basic: The plot achieves a level of Lulzy Stupidity.

Reinforced: Plot Wires but without any reason. It just happened because S.

Downplayed: The plot doesn't really get lulzily stupid, it only gets really hard to follow. This is where it begins to morph into Confusing Story.

Negated: The plot's not dumb, YOU are!

Inverted: First-Grader's Plot.

Justified: As time continues, the characters gradually begin to explain the plot to us in a way we can understand.

Gleeful: Random Humor might have the plot by the balls. It's not the story getting dumber, it's becoming more childish. Fortunately, Random Humor is short-lived and only happens to get the kids' short attention span problem solved. For a little.

Dismal: The plot gets so confusing, its creators don't know what to make of it, leading to the plot only getting worse and more confusing as time goes on.

Zip: Basic happens, then a Nutshell Moment attempts to rescue us from the Pit Of Sudden Dumb, but the nutshell itself makes no sense, so we're still screwed.
