Tuckman's Five Stages

The Five Stages of Group Development

Clips:
2.  Attitude Reflects Leadership-Storming, because the issues of the team are brought to light and discussed.
3. Coach Carter-Norming, because it involves the team coming together for a common goal, which was finishing all the pushups/suicides that needed to be completed.
4. Finding Nemo-Preforming, because it involves the end goal, or Nemo escaping.
5. You're Free-Adjourning, because it is the ending, the breaking up of the team, or group.

The missing stage is the very first stage, forming, which involves the building of a team but not necessarily as a complete unit.
Granted, while Donkey isn't the most diplomatic during their first meeting, this scene from Shrek shows Donkey and Shrek meeting for the first time, and also is a great example of wanting to be accepted by others, since Donkey does what he considers is his best in order to have Shrek like him, and keep him around. This is the formation of the future "team," or duo that will eventually come to rely on each other throughout the rest of the movie.
