This diagram may be out of date, but I found it useful early on to understand 
the multiple flows and "legs" of OAuth.

The question of "legs" (or parties as some prefer) depends on what you have and 
what you need.

Take a look at Implicit (4.2) and Resource Owner (4.3) flows for some examples 
of 2-leg flows using passwords. There are others for different types of grants.
