# Chapter 12 Plain Translation Repair Memo

Source audit: `output/critiques/claude/chapter_12.plain_translation.md`

Verdict: `DRIFT-FOUND (3 orders)`

Disposition: accepted all three orders.

Repairs made:

1. Replaced `Odile's card sat propped ... since Saturday's pile` with the plainer, followable `Odile's card had been propped against the tape dispenser since Saturday.`
2. Removed the `Dom's shop has a form` / `Dom has several forms` volley, preserving June's frame-errand account and the tote/strap blocking.
3. Replaced June's quotable `The wall's the thing` with `Not me at the wall.`

Mechanical check after repair:

`bash scripts/quality_gate.sh output/chapters/chapter_12.md`

Result: PASS, open=0, allowlisted=0, watch=53.

Verification:

No additional Claude verification round planned. All Plain Translation orders were literal replacements supplied or directed by the audit and will be covered in the synthesis memo.
