Control Trajectory

A beat-by-beat chart tracking Crockett and Tubbs's control over the undercover operation across all 40 beats. The shape is an oscillating plateau: control rises through Act II as the detectives earn the cartel's trust, crashes at beat 25 when Trudy is kidnapped, recovers through the endgame firefight, then settles below the opening as Montoya escapes untouched and Isabella disappears into Cuba.
