Frame count confirmed, indicating a time of 0:53. Video/audio quality is right on the money, considering the console. I wasn't previously familiar with the game (aside from its reputation alongside Pacman 2600 as a v.g. industry waylayer), but I played it through to completion to get a feel for the mechanics and objectives. The runner seems to know exactly what he's doing and does it, beating the TAS as a result. Accept.

I'm out of town, it's 2am, I'm in a hotel room stupidly awake because I had a good coffee with my dinner in New Orleans. Thank goodness this video is tiny and easy to watch on my iPad on the hotel internet.
It's 50/50 that the fried alligator I had for lunch in the French Quarter was actually alligator, but this run looks legitimate to me.
The AV quality looks fine for an Atari 2600. I see no evidence of cheating, nor of the FBI man magically holding a walkie talkie instead of a gun now, but rather just a route that improves on the TAS's routing.
I defer to the above verifier for the timing, but it sounds right. That is to my knowledge the best known time for this game.
This game is difficult to control. It's very easy to fall into a pit and very hard to get out. The runner seems to operate perfectly, or just about. This run clearly has legitimate work put into finding details about the power layout on this RNG position (which is fixed due to starting on power on by holdingt he button as the system is powered on, a trick learned from the TAS), resulting in a novel, imporved route.
SDA Phone Home.

Video and audio quality are fine.
No noticeable cheating, despite this basically being a perfect run. It's a short game (when you know what you're doing and manipulate the best item layout), but I can't emphasize enough just how close to frame perfect this is. Easy accept for a notoriously bad game.
