### Existing planning summary
Chapter 80 opens Shoni from the convoy side. The morning after the water lookout, the convoy realizes that someone alive came close during the night, filled or cleaned a water bowl or checked a boat rope, and withdrew before contact. Shoni enter as a smart shadow, not as a jump into the pa
### Chapter role in this part
The chapter must serve the water environment, marina logistics, Shoni, Seth / Summer, continued Steve signs, fragile broadcasts, and the growing truth that the convoy cannot stay road-only.
### Physical opening
To be locked during the new skeleton pass from the previous chapter's physical ending. Do not reuse old prose if it contradicts the current block order.
### What the previous chapter leaves that must matter here
Carry forward physical continuity from the previous chapter: vehicles, route, supplies, injuries, children, animals, relationship state, knowledge state, and any active object or signal.
### What the next chapter must receive from here
The next chapter must receive a clear physical handoff, not just an emotional idea: location, vehicle arrangement, who is present, who knows what, and what problem is still open.
### Physically active characters
To be locked during the new skeleton pass. Do not place a character physically in the chapter only to mark canon. They need action, body, dialogue, knowledge, or consequence.
### Characters active through speech, memory, object, or absence
Use absence as an active force only when it affects behavior, objects, signs, dialogue, or body. Steve, Lexa, Anya, the Legends, Hawkins, Shoni, Seth / Summer, or Caskett may be active this way only when the block permits it.

### Forbidden knowledge
No full Steve reunion in Part 3. No GPS solution. No stable radio rescue. No Anya learning Lexa through Steve. No Waverider magic. No side couple replacing the main core.
### Objects, vehicles, supplies, body, and logistics
To be filled during skeleton pass. Must include any physically present vehicles, tools, weapons, water, medical supplies, signs, ropes, radios, maps, food, children supplies, animal needs, and injury constraints.
### Children, animals, injuries, pregnancy, and medical continuity
To be filled during skeleton pass. Children, animals, pregnancy, and injuries cannot disappear just because the chapter has plot pressure.
