    A young advertising executive, on a rebound, falls for the girlfriend of his close childhood friend and woos her till she yields; they carry out a clandestine affair right under the nose of her boyfriend till she begins to suffer from guilt and decides to call off the affair; but her boyfriend comes to know of the affair and has his own plans.

    1-The Inciting event is when the protagonist's original girlfriend leaves him for somebody else. 2-The protagonist is the 'Young advertising executive'. 3-His goal is first to woo the girl; and when he succeeds she begins to have moral qualms and then his goal is to sustain / maintain the relationshRead more

    1-The Inciting event is when the protagonist’s original girlfriend leaves him for somebody else.
    2-The protagonist is the ‘Young advertising executive’.
    3-His goal is first to woo the girl; and when he succeeds she begins to have moral qualms and then his goal is to sustain / maintain the relationship because she wants to call off the affair and go back to her original boyfriend.
    4-The girl’s moral conflict about the affair constitutes the antagonism. He has to fight this.

    I will redefine the log line: “A young advertising executive, on a rebound, falls for and has a clandestine affair with his best friend’s girlfriend who begins to have moral qualms about the affair and wants to go back to her boyfriend.”

    Does this work?

    Yes, thanks, I think it can be shortened: "A young advertising executive on a rebound falls for and has a clandestine affair with his best friend's girlfriend till she begins to have moral qualms and her boyfriend also finds out about it." Does it work?
