ONE SINGLE UNBROKEN CONTINUOUS SHOT. No fades. No transitions. No dissolves. No black frames. The image stays continuous from first frame to last frame without any interruption. Profile two-shot — the woman on the LEFT, the man on the RIGHT, inches apart looking at each other. Camera stays locked on the man's face for the entire 10 seconds. He is the anchor. She moves around him. Seconds 1-2: the woman on the LEFT pulls her face away from his. She breaks eye contact, turns her head RIGHT, and moves past him to the RIGHT. Her blurred figure passes across his face and exits the RIGHT side of frame. His face stays in the same position the entire time. He does not move. Camera does not move. She passes through and is gone by second 2. Seconds 3-5: his face alone in frame, still in LEFT-facing profile. The LEFT side of frame is now empty sky and ocean where her face was. He stares at the empty space. He does not blink. His jaw tightens. Two full seconds of stillness. Wind moves his hair. Seconds 6-8: he blinks once. His head begins turning slowly to the RIGHT — following where she went. A continuous slow rotation from LEFT profile through front-facing to RIGHT profile. His expression shifts as he turns — stunned to raw to aching. Camera stays locked. Only his head moves. Seconds 9-10: he is now RIGHT-facing profile. His mouth opens and he says quietly: "Yeah. I'm in trouble." His mouth closes. He stares right. Wind. Hold. CRITICAL: absolutely no fade to black, no white flash, no dissolve, no transition of any kind between any part of this shot. One continuous unbroken take from start to finish. AUDIO: her sweater rustling and bare feet on wood as she passes seconds 1-2. Silence and wind seconds 3-5. His head turning, faint neck creak seconds 6-8. His whispered line seconds 9-10. Distant ocean throughout. No music. Diegetic only.
