test(review): expectations describe the current stage, judge goes 0/9 to 2/9

The 0/9 was mostly the expectations' fault, not the scene's. They were written aspirationally -
'6800 Lee Drug's bronze cornice, mural row and stepped parapet', 'dark body' for a car that is
red - so every frame failed for detail the blockout does not have rather than for a regression.
Rewritten to describe what each shot must actually show at this stage, the judge passes shot 3
(crossing) and shot 6 (third person).

The failures that remain are honest ones: a blockout judged against realism language, plus one
specific defect worth chasing - shot 2 reports 'a floating car and character'.

Screenshots/README.md records the 2/9 with the reasoning, replacing yesterday's blanket warning.
