The idea creates a simple question. Each reveal gives us part of the answer.
The opening quickly tells us what they can win or lose.
Most comments talk about emotion. That tells us what viewers remembered.
The middle needs one clear change so viewers can feel the story moving.
Ask one clear question at the start. Make each section answer part of it.
