Exposition:
The setting is in a hospital
situation/climate is that Victoria is witnessing herself dying, she thinks its cold, and the atmosphere is busy and distracted, though Victoria would do anything to be distracted from what is going on
Conflict:
Victoria vs. her death and what she will remember
Rising action:
- the doctors and nurses burst in and cause a scene and then wheel a hospital bed out of the room
- Victoria realizes whats happening and chases them
- Doctors talking before they enter the room
Climax:
-Victoria dies
Falling action:
- she doesn't remember who she is or where she is. She has no idea the girl in the hospital bed is her. She hears the doctors talk about calling the girl's parents, and becomes very sad that this girl was so obviously alone and there is no one to remember her story but the doctors.
Resolution:
- She is suddenly in a dark room where she feels as though she is in a therapy session, a stranger asks her about the scene she just saw. She expresses how sad she is that no one is there to really remember. The stranger thinks for a while then asks if she could be the one to remember, if it was something she would do. She expresses a future knowledge that it is a burden she should not have to bear, one that will one day crush her.
Does that mean she never remembers her life after that?
