plot

When referring to a story, "plot" describes the sequence of events rather than the theme or the characters themselves. In the context of land, "plot" usually refers to a small, defined area. It is often used in phrases like "a plot of land" or "a vegetable plot." When used as a verb meaning to plan something secret, it almost always carries a negative or sinister connotation.
