3- Act structure
ACT I - Set up

Connor is introduced as a shy kid sitting on a swing alone as the other kids play. He is staring at a young girl and trying to build the courage to go talk to her but can't. He notices the girl is playing with a worn, handmade teddy bear and she leaves it to go play with other.

Inciting Incident
As the girl gets ready to leave, she goes back to where she left her teddy bear only to find it missing.

Plot point #1
As she leaves in tears, she accidentally drops a picture of her and her teddy bear. Connor picks it up and decides to look for the bear himself.

ACT II - Confrontation

Connor searches the neighborhood trying to find the young girls bear.

Obstacles
 Of course the obstacles are that he cannot find the bear. No one knows where it is. Toy stores and other shops don't have anything like it because it has handmade. He can't find it anywhere in the park. He needs to find it before the sun goes down.

1st Culmination
A few people point him into directions of shops where they think they've seen the bear. However, no shop have it because it's hand-made.

Midpoint
Connor searches furiously for the bear but to no avail. He can't find it or anything like it anywhere. The young girl is shown sad in her bedroom and it reveals that the bear was special because her grandmother was the one who made it for her.

ACT III - Resolution

Just as Connor is about to give up, he sees a bear the kind of resembles the young girls bear. It's ten times the size and brand new but he buys it anyway. finally finds the bear and returns to the young girl who in thanks, gives him a little kiss.

Climax
While leaving the teddy bear store, Connor follows a dog into an alleyway and sees the teddy bear. He takes it to the young girl in the park and finally was the courage to approach her.

Denouement 
The girl leans in to give him a kiss but instead of her lips, Connor kisses the lips of the teddy bear.
