# Captioned steps, comment gate — rebuild sheet

A 49s two-hander in a herbal-medicine shop: a filthy anatomical mouth model held up as the problem, a remedy mixed and drunk on camera, then a book raised to the lens behind a "comment book" gate — 1,940,935 views, 18,095 likes, by hua_jin123.

**Why it works**

The problem is invisible inside your own body, so the model does what no claim could — it shows you the thing, filthy, then clean, in a frame that never moves, which means the change is the only event on screen. Then the whole remedy is handed over for free, so the gate at the end reads as a next step rather than a toll.

**The beats**

| Time | What happens | On-screen text |
|---|---|---|
| 3.96s | Locked two-shot behind a shop counter, apothecary jars and a calligraphy scroll behind. A large anatomical mouth model, tongue and palate caked in brown-grey debris, is raised into the lower frame. | it is something trapped deep inside you |
| 11.87s | Same frame. The model is now clean and pink; the younger woman pours a pale yellow liquid into it. | and they keep buying mouthwash that does nothing |
| 19.78s | Same frame, model gone. A tall glass of cloudy white liquid and a lemon wedge on the counter; the older woman holds a pinch above the glass. | that is it |
| 27.7s | Same frame. The younger woman drinks the mixture — now yellow. A bowl of white powder with a spoon and a whole lemon on the counter. | that is years of tonsil stones and bacteria coming out |
| 35.61s | Same frame. A dark brown hardback, ANCIENT REMEDY BIBLE, held up cover-to-camera. A bowl of small red-brown dried berries on the counter. | if you want my complete bad breath elimination |
| 43.52s | Same frame. An arm pushes the same book toward the lens, closer than any earlier beat. | comment book |

**What carries the value**

The mouth model. Filthy in beat one, clean in beat two, in an identical frame — that two-state prop is the entire persuasion, and everything after it is delivery. The free remedy is what buys the right to ask for the comment.

Two things the frames do not show, and I have not filled in: the ingredients are visible (white powder, lemon, a cloudy then yellow drink, red-brown dried berries) but never **named or measured** on screen, so the actual recipe is in the audio only — the sampled subtitles carry the pitch, not the steps. And six stills cannot tell you whether the camera ever cuts between beats; every sampled frame is the same composition, so treat it as one locked setup unless the video says otherwise.

Two other things worth knowing: a small `genaicontent` watermark sits top-left in every frame, and the post's own caption carries `#syntheticperformer`. This video was generated, not shot. That is why it's marked replicable without talent — there is no cast to hire here, and there wasn't one in the original either.

**Shoot it**

- **Camera:** one locked setup, chest height, square-on, behind a counter or work surface. It does not move, reframe or cut for the whole runtime — a phone on a tripod. Everything enters and leaves the frame; the camera never goes to it.
- **Blocking:** two people, one front and slightly left, one standing behind. The front one carries the speech; the back one does the physical business — pouring, drinking, holding. Props are raised into the **lower half** of the frame, never handed off-screen.
- **Light:** daylight from one window at camera left. No fill, no lamps, no colour.
- **Set:** a wall of labelled jars or shelved stock directly behind them — the room is the credential, so it has to read as a place where this is someone's actual work.
- **Wardrobe:** plain dark, high-collared, matching in register between the two people. No logos, no jewellery, no styling.
- **Props:** the two-state model is the shoot's real job — build or buy one that can be shown filthy and then clean in the same position. Everything else is a bowl, a spoon and a glass on the counter.
- **Text:** running speech subtitles, one clause per beat, centre-low, lowercase, plain white with a soft shadow, same position start to finish.

**Or generate it**

```
vertical 9:16, locked chest-up two-shot behind a stone counter in a traditional
herbal-medicine shop, wall of labelled apothecary jars on wooden shelves and a
framed calligraphy scroll behind, daylight through a window at camera left;
{SUBJECT} in a plain dark mandarin-collar tunic front left, a second person in a
dark green mandarin-collar tunic standing behind them, both facing the lens;
raised into the lower half of the frame and turned to camera, {PRODUCT} shown in
its worst, filthiest state, debris clearly visible on it; phone-camera look,
slight grain, no retouching, no on-screen text
```

**Motion:** camera absolutely locked and identical at every beat — nothing moves but the hands raising {PRODUCT} into the lower frame and turning it toward the lens. Generate every beat from the same seed so the room and both people match exactly.

**Text-overlay pattern:** "it is {the hidden problem} trapped deep inside you" → "and they keep buying {the failed product} that does nothing" → "that is it" → "that is years of {the hidden problem} coming out" → "if you want my complete {outcome}" → "comment {keyword}"
