Line 16:
Sometimes the Id/Superego dynamics play out with just two characters, but in those cases the representatives of opposing sides must learn to negotiate with each other. In a [[Power Trio]], they are free to be more extreme, and it falls to [[The Kirk]] to [[The Messiah|lay the smack down]] and keep the group integrated. The leader of a [[Freudian Trio]] may not necessarily be [[The Kirk]] but often is. The second most likely to be the leader is [[The McCoy]], the most noble and caring one. It might be that [[The Hero]] is the emotional [[The McCoy|id]], his [[The Lancer|lancer]] is the practical [[The Kirk|ego]] and [[The Smart Guy]] is [[The Spock|superego]].
In [[Betty and Veronica]] [[Love Triangle|love triangles]], the Betty may represent [[The Superego]], the Veronica [[The Id]] and the person making the choice between them may be [[The Ego]]. A [[Comic Trio]] uses the same ingredients, but the leader is crazy, the action one is stupid, and the thinking one is powerless. Depending on the [[Fandom]] and its tendency for [[Shipping]], a [[Power Trio]] may easily become a [[One True Threesome]]. Compare also [[Good Angel, Bad Angel]] if you see the "Shoulder Devil" as [[The Id]], the "Shoulder Angel" as [[The Superego]] and the person whose shoulders they rest on as [[The Ego]].
The [[Evil Duo]] is a [[Foil]] to this arrangement consisting of two villains who show how the Trio fails to function without one of the members. The most common form is with one Id villain and one Superego villain, but an Id/Ego pair or even an Ego\Superego pair is not unheard of.
