The narrative assertion
"Duggan’s declaration of wanting to 'thump someone' (beat_4e93d4524512412c) escalates into him physically assaulting Kerensky when the experiment fails (beat_d5c01f56768f897b). His simmering frustration boils over into action, marking a turning point in the lab sequence where brute force begins to dictate outcomes."
