Scam Defense #6 — THE FULL VIDEO (v8.1)

All five acts on the PLACARD system. 9:04 · zero credits. This player is a compressed 540p proxy for convenience — the full-quality master is on the Alienware: D:\AI\scam-defense-lab\video2\DELIVERY_v8\DC_SOLAR_v8_DELIVERY.mp4

v8.1 — the one fix you asked for (6:37, the whistleblower scene): the COURT FILINGS card was docked bottom-right, directly over the lit stage doorway, so it hid the insider walking out. It now docks bottom-left over the dumpster side, and the silhouette is clear for the whole beat (checked across the full time range, not one frame — that single-frame check is how it got past me). Nothing else in the video changed: same 9:04, same audio (−14.1 LUFS / −1.7 dB TP), acts 1–4 picture untouched.

Full video (540p proxy — full-quality file is local)

What the gates caught + fixed before this cut reached you:

A3-12 (backdated doc): the scene document still had fake grey bars under a beige wash — the same class you rejected on the cards. The asset is now repainted blank at pixel level and the wash is deleted from the code. Type sits on real paper.
A5-12 (end card): the CTA line ran off the tilted casefile — moved to the flat cover, case-file look kept.
A5-09 (SHOW ME THE THING): a struck item wrapped to two lines with the strike covering neither — now one line, fully struck.
Every card in every act passed the placement gate (22/22) and was eyeballed at full zoom; the 544-frame vision sweep's remaining flags were the deliberate next-case teaser and the approved act-1 scenery style.

Pick a thumbnail (A / B / C)

Same design language as the accepted #4 thumb. All $0 — built from the video's own art. Say "A", "B" or "C", or mix (e.g. "B's headline on A's picture").

Thumbnail B — **B — ONE VIN STICKER.** Names the actual trick and shows a human doing it. Most specific; the sticker itself isn't visible in the art.

Thumbnail C — **C — $1 BILLION PAPER FLEET.** Leads with the money on the lone real trailer. Most cinematic, least specific.

Pick a title

1. They Sold 17,000 Solar Generators. 9,000 Never Existed. ← my pick: names the object, the number does the work, no verdict word.
2. The $1 Billion Solar Fleet That Was Mostly Paperwork
3. The VIN Sticker That Sold the Same Machine Twice
4. 9,000 Solar Generators That Existed Only on Paper
5. The Solar Company That Was Actually a Theater Show

Also fixed in the upload packet: the METADATA in DELIVERY_v8 still carried the OLD 13:42 cut's chapters — one of them at 10:46, past the end of this 9:04 video. Rebuilt from the real act boundaries and each one checked on the delivered file: 00:00 The Good Idea · 02:11 The Decision · 03:30 The Stagecraft · 05:33 The Marquee · 06:32 Closing Night.

Your calls (nothing blocked on me)

Watch + notes. Audio balance = your ear (instruments: −14.1 LUFS / −1.7 dB true peak, 48 kHz).
Title + thumbnail — options are above; pick one of each and the upload packet is ready to go (SRT + description + chapters + tags + pinned comment all sit in DELIVERY_v8). Upload is your click.
Earlier open items still standing: EXTERIOR/SPARSE art-clause variants; the 2 stills with baked text (Flow rate-limited today — free to regen when it clears).
