The seven basic plots are:
hero defeats "evil"
Hero goes on a quest
Hero is reborn as a better person
flawed hero undone by his flaws
Hero goes from nothing to everything and back again learning along the way
Hero stumbles through life(comedy) ending up in a good place.
These are basically the BIG BOSS's programmed moves.
We live in reality but are forced to play in Plato's cave due to the postmodernists controlling the access to the information flow.
Hope that helps.....
