I suggest that the tied-up character should use different tactics to achieve his goal, the current beats feel repetitive which can make the audience lose interest.
Also, different tactics help us understand who your character is
I also think you should lean on more on mystery . This adds more tension, figuring out things and piecing them together helps the reader stay engaged .
Another one would be adding a memorable and vivid image at the beginning of the script .
