Why it works
The 0:00–0:06 moving satellite map turns the headline into a specific place before the first cut, while the 0:19–0:33 montage makes the claimed support and its stakes tangible. Three new evidence chapters start near 0:48, 1:18 and 1:56, and the 2:16 document reveal follows the most-replayed interval (2:14.9–2:16.7), giving viewers a source to inspect before the closing recap.
