Why it works
A moving foreground car reveals the strange prop before the first cut at frame 65, so the question is visual before it is spoken. The prop recurs through the street sequence, then the cost labels in shots 14 and 18 turn a social burden into a clear comparison; the final hard cut at frame 1025 leaves a clean brand close.
