I have followed the instructions -
open the case beside the iPhone's home screen
yes, I do have that small video of the rotating case and pods showing their respective charge percentages
but there's no connection option in the window
when I check the Bluetooth settings, it tells me that the AirPods Pro are not connected
there's the spinning gear beside the Other Devices label
Any thoughts on what I can do to connect these earbuds?
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Single Device Connection:
You can only have your AirPods connected to a single device at a time. It cannot be connected to more than one device.
So, Remove these from the Mac:

Perhaps I didn't flesh out the situation fully in my first message.
I am sitting in front of my iMac and I have both my and the wife's iPhone in front of me.
What I want to do is to have the AirPods Pro operate with her phone and mine only.
As I sit here - the phone is connected (I think) to the iMac
Why it chose to connect to the iMac rather than one of our 2 phones - I don't know.
When I close the connection on the iMac by clicking on John's AirPods Pro, I would have thought that the AirPods would automatically then try to connect with one of the phones in front of me.
And this does happen to the extent that I see the 2 windows - Sandra's AirPods Pro on the wife's phone - John's AirPods Pro on my phone - but neither window gives me the option of connecting.
So I'm unable to use the AirPods with the iPhones. How can I get this problem solved?
