Parent beats: 05b, 06, 10. After the drive stop (05.4), before the conversation (07). Three clips, about 16 seconds. Master 16:9 · 24fps · Phase 2 teal (false present). One camera move per clip. Still first — video later.
Lock for every bridge clip. Same Adam as the plate: mustard ochre linen blazer, taupe open collar, cream pinstripe trousers, two-tone loafers, black smartwatch. Gemstone in-ear in the right ear — not over-ear, not AirPods, not a visor. Closed VR FLASHBACK case under the arm (walnut frame, matte black lid, rose-gold lettering). Radio already off in 05.4 — this bridge starts silent. Arrival, not departure: coupe behind on 05b.1, Dex’s house ahead. On 10.1 Dex is a different man (curly hair, beard, charcoal tee, jeans, socks, empty ears).
Now. I2V 05b.1 (Seedance) and 06.1 (Kling) remade to true 16:9. Joined cut 05b.1–06.1–10.1 rebuilt. Square clips archived.
Why three clips. Same method as 05 and 07: one locked still per beat, then one short I2V. Walk → knock → door opens. Do not invent extra frames unless camera or action changes.
Two prompts per cell. The still prompt makes the photograph (Nano Banana), now. I2V is image-to-video, later: upload the locked file as frame 1. Skip I2V until the still is locked.
I2V for this bridge. Per clip: Seedance 1.5 Pro for 05b.1. Kling v3 for 06.1 and 10.1. Veo stays for no-face POV (05). Audio off.
Raw total ~16s; joined with 0.4s crossfade ≈ 15.3s. Sound: room / footsteps / knock — no Static Afterimage (radio off since 05.4). No dialogue. Hard cut into 07.
Full bridge grezzo (01–05 → here → 07): 01–07 silent.

ARRIVAL — OUT OF THE COUPE
He has already left the car. Radio is off. Coupe behind him. He walks toward Dex’s house — case under the arm, gemstone in the right ear. Same plate as general 05b (production copy: 05b.1-walk.jpg).
Sound: soft footsteps on stone. Distant birds optional. No radio. No dialogue.
On the board. Redo only if face, case, earpiece, or wardrobe drift — then attach nanobanana-one.jpg.
Still prompt
Use panel 1 as the man’s face and panel 2 as his clothes. Same person. Do not invent a new face.
ARRIVAL, not departure. He has just left the dark luxury coupe. The car is behind him. He walks toward Dex’s wealthy architect house. Not his own villa.
Mustard ochre linen blazer, taupe open collar, cream pinstripe trousers, two-tone loafers, black smartwatch.
In his right ear: the gemstone in-ear from panel 3. Not over-ear headphones. Not AirPods. Not a visor.
Under his arm: the closed case from panel 4. Lid says VR FLASHBACK in rose gold. Not cardboard.
Cinematic 35mm still, teal grade. Photoreal. 16:9.

Still prompt
Same man as panel 1 and 2. Same face. Same mustard ochre linen blazer, taupe open collar, cream pinstripe trousers, two-tone loafers, black smartwatch. Do not invent a new Adam.
He stands at a tall architectural front door of a wealthy stone-and-wood house. Landscaped entry. Quiet luxury. Not a suburban porch.
Right hand knocking on the door. Under the other arm: the closed case from panel 4 — walnut frame, matte black, rose-gold VR FLASHBACK. Not cardboard.
In his right ear: the gemstone in-ear from panel 3 — dark diamond-cut smoked glass, matte charcoal tip, silver mesh. Clearly visible. Not over-ear headphones. Not AirPods. Not a visor. Not a boom mic.

Dex opens. Adam on the threshold with the case. Two different men — do not mix faces or clothes. Same plate as general 10 (production copy: 10.1-opens.jpg). Hard cut into conversation coverage on 07.
Sound: door latch / soft open. Brief silence. No dialogue yet — lines start on 07.

Still prompt
TWO DIFFERENT MEN. Panel 1+3 is ADAM. Panel 2+4 is DEX. Do not mix faces. Do not mix clothes.
Arrival, not departure. DEX inside opening a tall architectural door: thick dark curly hair, full short beard, charcoal t-shirt, mid-blue jeans, black socks, no shoes. Face readable in three-quarter. Empty ears.
ADAM on the threshold: clean-shaven, light-brown side part, mustard ochre linen blazer, taupe open collar, cream pinstripe, two-tone loafers, black smartwatch. In his right ear: the gemstone from panel 5 — not headphones. He carries the closed case from panel 6: walnut, matte black, rose-gold VR FLASHBACK. Not cardboard.
Wealthy stone-and-wood house. Teal cinematic still, quiet luxury. Photoreal 16:9.

6 seconds. Dex finishes opening the door and holds it — EMPTY HANDS except the door handle. No bag, no case on Dex. Adam stays on the threshold with the case. Both faces hold — two different men. Minimal camera move. Soft settle. No handshake yet. No dialogue. Hold a beat, then hard cut to shot 07.
