Clock Tower and City Skyline

Cut 1: A vast sunset city skyline frames a giant old clock tower rising above packed rooftops, with a lone courier sprinting across cables toward it while gears spark inside the tower face. Cut 2: A fast rooftop side shot follows as the courier vaults gaps and slides under collapsing scaffolding. Cut 3: A low angle from the tower wall shows huge clock hands shuddering and beginning to break loose. Cut 4: The courier leaps onto the moving minute hand as it tears away from the tower. Cut 5: The camera swings with the falling hand as the courier runs along it mid-collapse. Cut 6: Below, a crowded tram crosses the street exactly where the tower debris will fall. Cut 7: The courier kicks free the jammed counterweight cable, redirecting the tower’s collapse sideways. Cut 8: The tower crashes into an empty plaza instead of onto the tram, and the courier lands hard on the tram roof as it speeds clear beneath the dust cloud.
