The falling action is the part of a story, usually found in tragedies and short stories, after the climax and showing the effects of the catastrophe.

History

In his Poetics the Greek philosopher Aristotle put forth the idea that "'ολον δε εστιν το εχον αρχην και μεσον και τελευτην" (1450b27) ("A whole is what has a beginning and middle and end"(1450b27)). Under Freytag's pyramid, the plot of a story consists of five parts: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and revelation/catastrophe, the dénouement.

A. Michael Arroyo grows up in the shadows of hallowed Yankee Stadium, a boy forever on the outside looking in. His only chance to see his field of dreams? Pitch his Bronx all-star team to the district finals and a shot at the Little League World Series. But there is a problem. Michael is good too good. Rival coaches and players can t believe a boy could be this good and be only twelve years old. And Michael has no way to prove it no mother, no father, and a birth certificate that is stuck home in his native Cuba. If the people from social services find out his secret, he will have an even worse problem: being separated from the only family he knows, his older brother Carlos. Baseball can be a game of heroes, of champions who refuse to lose.… [cont.]

A. There are two situations that you may be referring to: 1) When Anna comes out and tries to sue her mother and father for being genetically engineered to provide blood to save her sisters life. 2) Where things turn around, and it happens to be Anna that dies and not her sister. Anna dies in a horrific car accident with her attorney.
