Why it works
A direct invitation builds within shot 1 before the first cut at frame 156. The result develops through shot 8's hard cut at frame 997 and three one-frame reframes, while the final choice remains available for 419 frames from frame 4921. The sound grid confirms narration carries 80% of the film, so visual changes reinforce phrases rather than a beat.
