# Chapter 22 Immediate Continuity Check - Current Text

DATES/TIME: CLEAN - Ch22 opens Sunday morning after Theo's Friday ask and before Tuesday class. Evidence: phone bubbles have sat "for a day and a half" (line 7), June sends "`Sunday. 9. Just coffee.`" (line 19), the diner scene starts "At 8:56" (line 27), and Tuesday is set as the next studio action (lines 127, 145, 177).

OFFER/NEW YORK STATE: CLEAN - June's stay decision remains made before Theo's text and not because of him. Evidence: "I said no to Tasker Friday morning" (line 89), "Before your texts" (line 91), "I gave her Asha's name after asking Asha first. I'm taking Dana's room, and I sent Kessler the W-9" (line 91), and "I'm staying, Theo. It isn't for you" (line 91).

ODILE/NEPHEW REVEAL STATE: CLEAN - Theo tells June Odile is his aunt and that his job/apartment/classroom run through her (line 45), which is already exposed to June after Ch17/Ch21. No one reveals Odile's night-one knowledge or brings the class/public into the truth. Protected Ch24 reveal remains intact.

PORTRAIT STATE: CLEAN - The Week 3 study exists, is finished, labeled, dated, and faced to the wall in the stockroom (line 113). Theo does not bring or describe it (line 113). June sets consent terms: "It stays where it is. Faced in... I turn it around myself" (line 127) and "Not to Odile, not to a wall, not to anything with a guest list" (line 131).

WEEK 6 FEAR CANVAS: CLEAN - Theo corrects his misread without turning the canvas into proof. Evidence: "I read it wrong" (line 103), "I thought the blank was for me" (line 103), and June's correction: "The assignment was fear... That blank is your station, empty" (line 105).

`AFTER CLASS` STATE: CLEAN - The joint piece resumes under bounded terms. Evidence: "Come at four. Before class. We finish *After Class*, both of us" (line 145), jar/stain terms at lines 147-149, and the final card at line 177.

OBJECT STATE: CLEAN - Blue dish begins on the drainboard/table (line 3), is not taken to Sunday diner, and ends wrapped in the tote by the door for Tuesday (lines 177-179). `FEB = coat` remains on the pinboard (lines 5, 179).

INJURIES/BODY STATE: CLEAN - no injury clock introduced. Nearest body-state candidates ("bad shave" and cold nose, lines 163-165) are sensory/appearance facts only.

Chapter verdict: CONTINUITY-CLEAN.

REVISION ORDERS: none. Tracker reconciliation required: add the Sunday diner facts, portrait terms, Tuesday 4:00 plan, and blue-dish position to continuity/thread/timeline/event-ripple files before commit.
