Mostly no, and the negative is bounded to the chapter (flat chars 711312-728584). It has no occurrence of dialogue, dialog, inner, length, compress, invent or scenario. Inner thought appears only as the instruction to show a book's stated obligation as story action and not by a leader (para 10) and the warning against leaders that merely quote the book (para 14). Length appears only as the two-reels-of-explanation example (para 12). The nearest reel statement is Ch. XXXIV para 2 (a reel is about 1000 feet, as low as 800) and the nearest leader rule naming adaptation is Ch. XXXVII para 35.

Curator qualifications: Adaptation order, source-type rules, event ordering, the bounded negatives on dialogue and inner thought, and reconstruction are verified as Sargent's text. The claim/example/market split in -07 holds.

Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
