'it was all a test' sounds too much like 'apparently I did the wrong thing and I can't have done the wrong thing so I'll insist there was a context that made it the right thing'
Ah, good plain old-fashioned physical violence. And all this superserious tone which gets gloomier and heavier with each second is all - poof - disappearing instantly. Looks a little bit stretched. Also, our little heroine grabbed old man's arm. Impressive
Thank you for picking this up
