I have a piece of counter advice that allows you to on occasion plan a plot point. Generally your PCs are most invested in their beloved NPCs, either from backstory or the plot you've developed. If you have a cool idea, these NPCs can often be inserted into it and offer exactly what the players enjoy.
That's a great idea. The players have invested in the NPC, so make that pay off by involving them in the story.
What I'm hearing is have the BBEG murder them.
When players might be reading, we say "involve".
