During the exposition the play introduces the characters engaged in dramatic action, describing the given circumstances and defining the dramatic problem. The inciting incident initiates the plot. The plot develops during the rising action as complications and conflicts arise as a result of that inciting incident. The plot and characters develop to a turning point sometimes called the reversal or the technical climax in which the plot takes an unexpected turn. Then, the characters are thrown into a crisis during the falling action following the reversal, which leads to a resolution of the plot in the denouement, which brings about a catharsis in the audience unless it is a deus ex machina.

What are the 2 main elements of melodrama?

There are actually three major plot elements to the standard melodrama. The first element is provocation The motivating force of the villains abuse of the hero/heroine. Why the villain chose his/her victim. The second element is the "pangs" of pain suffered by the hero at the merciless hands of the villain. The third major element is the penalty served to the villain at the end of the melodrama. This is where the villain pays for abusing the hero heroine. If you cited only two major elements of melodrama...it could be provocation of the villain (real or perceived) and penalty...or perhaps crime (the actual acts against the hero) and the villain's punishment for those actions. I would argue that there are three major elements to melodrama personally.
