What happened was: "1, 2, and 3"
It is natural to use the phrase "So what happened was" to introduce a sequence of events or a summary. Saying "1, 2, and 3" after that phrase indicates that you are about to provide a concise summary or outline of those events.
This type of storytelling structure is frequently used in conversations or narratives to give a brief summary or highlight the key elements of an event or situation.
