The inciting incident of a short story is the part of the story were something gets screwed up. This is when the problem begins! :)
It would be a lesser charge than inciting to riot, but it means you started a disturbance.
Inciting force in a story is either an event or a character that triggers conflict. It is similar to the climax of the story; the height of the excitement/tension in a story.
I am pretty sure that the inciting force is when marry hits patrick with the frozen leg of the lamb. Because it is the reason for the main part of the story occuring (trying to get away with it.). The rising action is when she tries to get away with killing her husband. The climax is when she tricks the police into actually eating the leg of the lamb.

The cyclone is the inciting force in "The Wizard of Oz."Specifically, the inciting force is the event because of which there is a story. It comes in the exposition or introduction.

The inciting force of "Lamb to the Slaughter" occurs when the husband tells his wife that he is leaving her, causing her to react impulsively and kill him with a frozen leg of lamb. This event sets off the chain of actions that drive the story forward.
The inciting event is the event in the story (normally at the beginning) that causes the whole story to happen. If that event didn't happen then there would be no story
