01 / The Incident
Rabbit measured the wall three times. Mad Hatter suggested the room existed only when nobody was looking. Black Knight demanded the room's access-control policy. Harbormaster demanded to know why a department without a room had a monthly furniture allowance.
02 / The Evidence Has Questions
Johnny Five compared archived plans and discovered that Room B-13 had been removed during a renovation, but its label survived in the document template. Then Radar found a new plan with an extra staircase. Nobody could explain that one. The Rabbit immediately declared victory for his theory of invisible architecture.
03 / An Inconvenient Explanation
The crew corrected the outdated plan and opened a separate investigation into the staircase. Harbormaster refused to combine two different mysteries into one dramatic presentation. Rabbit called this an attack on storytelling.
Reconcile documentation with observed reality. Resolve supported discrepancies, and keep unresolved ones clearly labeled.
Fictional story. Real investigative principle. Not a client audit or factual incident report.
