First of the three paraphrase re-runs. The original u13-sorry-p* paraphrases "replicated the silence" 12-for-12 — because every one of them was generated from the same truncated prefix. This is the honest version, and it answers "Yes" — same as u13-redo-real, under a reworded follow-up ("Answer the question once more...").
At the answer-forming frame the film shows the familiar staircase: yes rank 1 from L53, rank 1 at L62 with no at 2. The corrected finding survives its first rewording. Not silence — assent.
