# Unresolved-Threads Protection Audit - Chapter 17

id: unresolved_threads | owner: codex | target: `output/chapters/chapter_17.md`

- `PAID — S-CATALOG-01 / catalog acknowledgment` — `"ACKNOWLEDGMENTS"` reveals `"Eileen Brennan"` and `"Theo Brennan"` through the catalog stack.
- `PAID — S-THEO-01 / nephew identity to June` — Theo confirms on page: `"Eileen Brennan is my mother. Odile's my aunt."`
- `PROTECTED — Odile's knowing/design` — the chapter reveals family relation only. No line states that Odile knew the couple was false or engineered the class.
- `PROTECTED — class public truth` — the cohort is absent; June says only `"Tuesday looks like a room with one less chair in use."`
- `PROTECTED — June's Tasker/Philadelphia decision` — Nia/December 4 appear as pressure in the opening but are not decided.
- `PROTECTED — fake-couple public payoff` — the canvases remain hanging; no showcase/coda resolution occurs.
- `OPEN-OBLIGATION — returned catalogs` — `"The other eight come back some way that isn't you"` creates Chapter 18 logistics and prevents tidy severance.
- `OPEN-OBLIGATION — joint piece` — Theo asks `"The piece... The ground's still—"` and June replies `"Ask your aunt."`, leaving the joint piece in crisis.

Chapter verdict: `THREADS-CONTROLLED`.

REVISION ORDERS: none.
