"Once upon a time there was [blank]. Every day, [blank]. One day [blank]. Because of that, [blank]. Until finally [bank]." Let's try it on...
Once upon a time there was a guy named John McClane. Every day, he tries to be a good guy to his family even though he and his wife are on the outs at the moment. One day, he visits his wife at a holiday work party and a group of terrorists show up. Because of that, he has to go full Bruce-Willis-murder mode, tape a gun to his back and walk barefoot on glass. Until finally, he kills all the terrorists and saves the day.
