Sandbox / Second-Act Breakup

Go To

  • Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario: A couple breaks up towards the 3/4 point in a story, spend some time apart, before reconciling before the end of the work.
  • Second Act Break Up: A couple breaks up at the end of the second act, spend some time apart, before reconciling before the end of the work.

the description for Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario even says Second Act Break Up is just BUMUS but for movies and plays. So is there any difference between the two?
