The paper introduces PACE, a factor-guided, progressive framework for acquiring evidence in long-video question answering. PACE first indexes clip-level descriptions using question-derived factors, then refines evidence retrieval with contrastive cues derived from candidate answers. On the MMR‑V dataset, PACE achieves 42.6% accuracy and recovers 66.9% of annotated cues, outperforming direct inference and prior agentic baselines, and shows consistent improvements across several long-video benchmarks.
