Why it works
The 51-frame clock hook makes the deadline readable before the cast enters. Shot 8 holds a 153-frame hesitation, then shots 9–18 compress the private request into a real screen result; the human payoff follows in shots 19–23. A continuous boundary at frame 1252 carries the physical resolution into the restrained end card.
