| Observed Failure | Root Engine Cause | Correction Step |
|---|---|---|
| Duke drops his gun and walks into a cell | Duke lacks aggressive self-defense priority over the Detective's arrest authority | Arm the Duke prior to the Detective entering the arrest animation frame |
| Detective stands idle beside the corpse | Detective entered the room before the murder was committed | Swap panel positions; murder must happen chronologically to the left |
| Level completes without the special stamp | The secondary objective required zero bystanders during the fatal shot | Remove extra onlookers or maids from the fifth panel completely |
| Duke shoots the King twice instead of the law | Character target hierarchy defaulted to existing feud rather than external threat | Ensure the King is definitively registered dead before re-equipping the Duke |
