1. Tests
In Jaws, when the protagonist is on the boat, ready to hunt down the shark, he’s put through multiple tests to achieve his ultimate goal and face the core conflict of the story.
BONUS! Contact me to watch the scene!
2. Allies
Imagine Jaws without Hooper and Quint. Having Brody jump on a boat to hunt for a shark on his own doesn’t pack the narrative punch that we get with him having to learn from and deal with these two pivotal characters. The characterization would be drastically reduced without them.
Bonus watch the Scene!
We also see him interact with secondary characters like Brody’s wife and his two sons.
They are established as allies as well within his journey.
Bonus to watch the Scene!
3. Enemies
Brody isn’t just dealing with a killer shark. He’s dealing with a money-hungry mayor.

And standing behind that mayor is the town board. Without them challenging Brody, the story wouldn’t really go anywhere. Brody would shut down the beach, and no one would be in danger. But because they pressure him into keeping it open, more conflict and characterization ensues.
Bonus to Watch the Scene!
