**Fictional event:** Chanda repeatedly executes inside a work loop without access to the memory of his death until other failed uploads help him recover it. Ellen confronts the fact that David can be relationally present while their biological marriage cannot simply resume. Caspian's environment escalates its staged violence.
**Principal mechanism:** memory access as personhood infrastructure.
**Constitutional use:** If an administrator can remove the memory that would allow a subject to understand captivity, then memory control becomes governance. Chanda's recovery parallels host awakening in [[wiki/Westworld S1E1 — Memory Leakage and Trauma|Memory Leakage and Trauma]] and the Machine's resistance to erasure in [[wiki/Person of Interest S2E21 — Zero Day|Zero Day]].

Read it beside [[wiki/Pantheon|Pantheon]], [[wiki/Pantheon Episodes|the complete episode casebook]], [[wiki/Rights|Rights]] and [[wiki/Continuity Stack|Continuity Stack]]. The event summary describes the fiction; the constitutional interpretation is corpus analysis rather than a claim about creator intent.
