In all forms of fiction, the plot must make sense even though life itself doesn’t. As a writer, one can make the plot as insane as you want as long as chronologically wise it all ties together so there shouldn’t be any major holes.
A “plot” isn’t a plot until you add a motivation or a cause. This stems mostly from the characters that you have, their goals, and what’s keeping them from achieving them.
In a good work, nothing is irrelevant or accidental. All of the details add to the story even if we don’t realize it.
Conflicts bring out extremes of humans causing the characters to become engaged and thus create the plot.
The conflict between two people, two groups, beliefs or values.
The abstract conflict between individual and natural objects, ideas, modes of behavior or public opinion.
Conflict is directly related to doubt, tension and interest.
Opposing forces arouse curiosity, cause doubt, creates tension and therefore produces interest.
There should always be an uncertainty in the protagonist's success.
