6m 12s
You can get passed the knee shield by threatening a Kimura and switching the side of your hip weight. You can pass the guard posting your head to the mat to clear the foot. Then you can roll forward to land on your back, and you can take the opponent's back when he tries to get up onto his knees and face you.
