Solution

A nudge

It breaks on beat 6. REPEAT beat 5.

The full solution

Two edits: REPEAT first, then FLIP.

  1. REPEAT beat 5
  2. FLIP beats 5 to 8
    On the strip as the first edit left it.
  3. Action!
    She reaches the X on beat 8.

Other ways that work

The scene has 3 ways to print it, counted by the game's own solver.

  • CUT beat 1, then REPEAT beats 3 to 4, then FLIP beats 4 to 8
  • CUT beat 1, then REPEAT beat 4, then FLIP beats 4 to 7

Watch for

  • Edits star: 2 edits or fewer.
  • Early star: the X by beat 7.
  • Films loop: a win on a later lap is a long take, printed without those two stars.
