I love your explanations, and I found myself agreeing with them all (by thinking back to when I'd said those things, and what I'd really meant). "The hero’s daughter is kidnapped. That happened. The hero is a police officer, and he believes himself to be smarter, if not stronger, than any bad guy. His myth of himself is heroic and brave. He goes into action planning a smart rescue. Now not only is his daughter at stake, but his identity as well." Excellent example, as well!
