→The Script Timeline: 1 ) Rmvd "10 pages" from "review length." 10 pages is more script *notes* than coverage. 2) Rmvd "final paragraph" portion, as it's not typical. 3) Rmvd line that was clearly biased towards "development notes" over coverage. |

Line 30:
=== Economy of the script ===
By the very nature of summarizing a complicated plot, the coverage will not include every plot twist and subplot. Some characters will be omitted, or only briefly introduced for the sake of brevity. In order to decide on what will stay and what will go, the character and actions must support the main plot, and ultimately the premise of the story. Scripts that are not economical and include peripheral characters, scenes, and storylines that do not support character or plot development do not affect their motivation, and therefore can be omitted from the coverage. In this manner, well-written scripts may have longer synopses than poorly written scripts with a lot of extraneous action.
