Move 1 of 9: U2

Insert the last F2L pair and orient the last layer in the same sequence for this VLS case.

Recognize this starting position

For the front-right target slot in this training state, the DFR corner is at UFR and the FR edge is at UR. Corner sticker directions are F→U, D→F, R→R; edge sticker directions are F→U, R→R. Each arrow reads color reference face → current facing direction. Upper corners with the upper-face color facing up: UFL, UBL.

Execute the algorithm

U2 R U' R' U' R' F R F'

The opening is U2 R U'; the final segment is F R F'. This version contains 9 face, wide, or slice turns and no whole-puzzle rotations.
