# Immediate Continuity Check: Chapter 03

NAMES: CLEAN - checked June Park/PARK, Theo Brennan/BRENNAN, Mara/Luis Valdez, Priya Nair/NAIR, Ben Adler/ADLER, Ruth Kim/KIM, Sam Rivera/RIVERA, Odile. Near-miss: line 23 surname-only tray labels introduce KIM/RIVERA before first names, but lines 43-47 place Ruth/Sam.

TIMELINE: CLEAN - checked Tuesday, October 20 first class at 7:00 after Ch02 packet pickup. Near-miss: line 111 watch says eight forty, plausible for class ending after timed exercises and rail critique.

KNOWLEDGE: CLEAN - checked June knows only gallery/payroll truth and public cover; no nephew/family reveal. Near-miss: line 89 "We know each other from there" is true but incomplete.

OBJECTS: CLEAN - checked assignment card, taped trays, charcoal tins, ugly drawing, Mara's black scarf, Theo's retained charcoal stub. Near-miss: line 101 fresh charcoal appears without attribution; accepted as unannounced care move.

INJURIES: CLEAN - no injuries/deaths introduced; standing/drawing fatigue remains ordinary class condition.
