False Ending/The Final Twist

The ending of the seventh sequence when the audience thinks your story is over. The moment could be a “bad” ending (In The Matrix, Neo dies, riddled by the bullets of the Agents.) or a “good” one. (In American Beauty, Lester Burnham finally beds Angela and has everything he wants.)

The Final Twist throws one last curveball to the audience. Usually, if your false ending is “bad”, then your true ending is “good” (In The Matrix, Neo turns out to be The One and resurrects from the dead.) and if your false ending is “good”, then your true ending is “bad”. (In American Beauty, Lester realizes Angela is a virgin and is killed minutes later.)
