Why it works
A moving crest opens on frame 0, while the apparatus in shot 2 makes the control claim visible. Shot 10 keeps one diagram on screen for 47 seconds and changes its elements with the explanation, then the cut at frame 2710 returns the idea to irregular live water. The strongest replay window is near 1:55.6–1:56.8 during that live comparison.
