| | THE PREMISE |
 | | The premise is an important component because it serves as the soul of the story. | | | Thus, the premise of the story that heroic (good) schemes are doomed to muddled results is proven by the Hero. | | | Just remember that a story without a premise is a story without a soul. |

| | The Usual Suspects, an Essay by Bill Johnson |
| | This is a vital issue to understand because by ensuring that all the characters in the story have issues tied into the story's dramatic purpose, their actions advance the story. | | | This happens in many action stories, that the story's premise is revealed by one of the story's characters. | | | Note that part of this "yes" is proved out by Verbal killing Keaton, a man he appears to care about, and having Keaton's lover, Edie, killed, just as Keyser Soze killed his family to demonstrate his will. |

| | The Art Of Dramatic Writing -- Writers Write(R) |
| | The play grew out of a Biblical quotation which is the premise: "The sins of the fathers are visited on the children." Every word uttered, every move made, every conflict in the play, comes about because of this premise. | | | We are not sure that the author of Juno and the Paycock knew that his premise was "Shiftlessness leads to ruin." The son's death, for instance, has nothing to do with the main concept of the drama. | | | And it must be a premise worded so that anyone can understand it as the author intended it to be understood. |
