The Volvo evidence: nude footprints on the windshield; the "word" on the fogged window

pivotal · ~YTMP-YTSDB (the days before JOI's 1 Apr YTSDB death) — separatist + liaison cruxes

• When: Orin's footprint-sightings dated Y.T.M.P. (2003); the "word" appears "in the days prior to" JOI's 1 Apr YTSDB suicide
• What: Two pieces of circumstantial evidence of Avril's infidelity, both reaching us via Orin. (1) Scene 170: "Orin alleged in Y.T.M.P. that when he took the Moms's car in the morning he sometimes observed the smeared prints of nude human feet on the inside of the wind-shield." (2) Per Bain (n269), from "an innocent female relative" briefly intimate with Orin: in the days before JOI's suicide "a so-called 'word' appeared on a 'fogged' 'window' of Mrs. Inc's pale yellow Volvo, and the word cast a conjugal pall in all sorts of directions." (Cross-ref Joelle's account, n080: JOI discovered Avril's infidelity — a name rewritten in the Volvo window's steam — while driving to shoot Joelle for the final cartridge.) A load-bearing exhibit for both the separatist and liaison questions, unresolved.
