Searchlight finds them

The prompt

Wide shot of a man in a dark jacket crouched on a rainy rooftop at night, photoreal action, locked camera. 0–2s: he is a dark shape against the distant city glow, rain falling. 2–4s: a helicopter searchlight beam begins sweeping across the rooftops. 4–6s: the beam crosses the roof and lands on him, rain glittering inside the blazing white cone. 6–8s: he shields his eyes in the beam, then breaks into a run. Throughout: wet surfaces reflecting the beam, the city far below, fixed camera, one continuous take.
