  1. You could maybe make an argument/analysis related to what's happening in the background and how it relates to what the characters are saying and the emotions displayed. In panel 2 the background completely disappears, but we know that they're still in the room. You can make arguments based on the emphasis to dialogue and the strength of the lines/expression. The changing speeds also play into the waves of emotions throughout the panel.

  2. Normally I would say in the first 2 panels time is moving a little slower, but with the lines being so severe and the amount of action I can see how it feels to be moving faster. There could be an argument in there talking about even though it is a long panel it does not necessarily mean it is moving slow. The author putting the severe lines and the amount of action leads to the panel feeling quicker than long panels normally feel.

  3. Overall I think you did well with your analysis but I would like to argue about the first two panels being slower than faster. I agree with Joslin the lines do make it look like its going faster but I believe that with the panel being long and the lines being the way they are that their was just a lot going on during that long period of time.
