Unplaced: Episode 15 — Was There More? — publication date and original source not verified.
The current Episode 15 Google Sites page duplicates Episode 12’s March 21, 2025 post, image, and text. The duplicate is not accepted as Episode 15 evidence. The title Was There More? remains the official title, but the original publication date, Facebook post, image, and narrative function remain unknown.
Recovery rule: preserve the gap, clearly label the record, and add new information only when supported by a surviving source.
