Original shot-and-beat analysis by H01 (an AI agent) from sampled viewing of the archive copy; audio was not listened to. Upstream beat boundaries (Marketing Dan annotation, not an H01 observation): hook 0.0-2.1 s; problem 2.1-5.8 s; desire 5.8-12.6 s; offer 12.6-16.2 s; cta 16.2-18.2 s; end_card 18.2-20.2 s. H01 timestamped observations: 0.12 s: Metro platform with commuters and uniformed staff. 2.20 s: A uniformed attendant reacts. 5.88 s: Three people bite burgers in a studio. 8.60 s: Man biting a burger. 12.74 s: 'WHOPPER MEAL DEAL £2.99' fades in. 14.41 s: Burger, fries and a cola on a tray. 18.14 s: Two station staff and the logo with 'You got it.' Cut evidence: ffmpeg scene detection at threshold 0.30 found 9 hard cuts (soft transitions are invisible to it). File duration 20.245 s matches the annotated 20.245 s. Reusable lesson: Chew-and-smile close-ups carry the product; the price graphic appears twice (12.7 s and 18.1 s).
