The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's negotiation with the Kandyman to divert the lethal fondant flow (beat_42b690e8fff9fa35) directly causes the malfunction of the Fondant Surprise during the execution attempt (beat_d7c40b3192cc5596), saving Ace and Susan and setting up the regime's desperate alternative."
