 Solution

On the fixed parameter interval the integrand tends to $\cos \theta$ as $\kappa \to 0$ and is bounded by $\cos \theta$. The dominated convergence theorem, or uniform convergence here, givesThis equals Sam's time between departure and reunion. Physically, $dx/dt=-c\kappa \tan \theta$ tends uniformly to zero, so Alice's worldline approaches Sam's, and the time dilation disappears.
