+ES2-SIT012 | The Inherited Half of a Deal | one party to a private bargain dies; the survivor holds an obligation whose other half no living person can verify, release, or receive | ≠ deathbed promise: the deal was reciprocal, and the counter-obligation is now unownable | [candidate] [play:H]
+ES2-SIT013 | The Necessary Audience | an act (confession, mercy, defiance) that only counts if a specific person witnesses it — and that person refuses to watch; the situation is procuring an unwilling witness without coercion | ≠ public confession: validity, not courage, requires the witness | [candidate] [play:H]
+ES2-SIT014 | The Rehearsed Reunion | two long-separated people have each privately rehearsed the reunion so thoroughly that the actual meeting is a collision of two incompatible scripts; the situation is negotiating out of both performances into contact | ≠ awkward reunion: the scripts are the antagonists | [candidate] [play:H]
+ES2-SIT015 | The Beneficiary of the Verdict One Knows Is Wrong | a judgment in one's favor rests on an error only oneself can see; correcting it costs everything, and the error will now compound through others' reliance | ≠ guilty secret: the initial act was innocent — the guilt accrues through maintained silence | [candidate] [play:H]
