Control Trajectory
A beat-by-beat chart tracking Jack Traven's tactical control over the bomb crisis and his ability to protect hostages across all 40 beats. The shape is a W: high competence in the elevator, an oscillating decline through the bus as options are eliminated, a sharp recovery through camera-loop ingenuity, a second collapse when Payne kidnaps Annie, and a final climb through brute-force resolution on the subway.
