Todorov's Five stages
Equilibrium- Detective Mills moves to a new city with his wife.
Disruption- Detective Mills and Detective Lt. William Somerset come across the first of seven murders each represented by one of the seven deadly sins.
Recognition of disruption- They realise they are dealing with a serial killer who kills according to the seven deadly sins and justifies it as absolution for the world's ignorance to the seven deadly sins.
Attempt to repair the disruption- The two detectives attempt to capture the serial killer, but Detective Mills ends up completing the serial killers task, by killing him and therefore showing the sin of revenge.
Restoration of equilibrium- The serial killer has been killed, although his task of showing the world the seven deadly sins was completed in the end by the person who was supposed to stop it.
