Ten nights, ten tricks, each of them related to the topic of the evening. Professor's nightmare, for example (I use three different length dog chains instead of ropes) is used to illustrate paragraph development in an essay. The Introduction may be the shortest part, then you have the Body of the paper where you prove your case, and then in the Conclusion, you stuff in everything you forgot earlier so the conclusion offers longer than any other part. However as you can tell -- zip zip zip -- all paragraphs are of equal importance: they all need a topic sentence, they all need depth of detail, they all need organization, and they all have to fit into the larger context of the essay or whatever you are writing.
