Baphomet Part 1 — The Head In The Box · 11 world plates · nano-banana-pro · 16:9 · 2K
These plates supply the WORLD (@image1). Bridge's face is locked separately at video time by the headless sheet (@image2) — so judge grade, staging, environment, wardrobe canon and props here, not likeness.
Verdict — 7 pass, 4 need a re-roll
| Plate | Status | Issue |

| p1-1-arrest | re-roll | Soldiers wear Templar crosses — they're Philip IV's royal troops |
| c5-home-base | re-roll | Gold ring — canon is silver only |
| p2-2-teraph-chamber | re-roll | Gold ring — same drift |

Pattern worth fixing at the source: the gold ring appeared twice despite the prompt saying "silver only". Same failure mode as the wristwatch — a positive instruction the model ignores. Fix is an explicit negative, as with the watch. Total re-roll cost ≈ $0.20.
P1-1 · The Arrest, 1307
kf-p1-1-arrest.png · Bridge motionless as soldiers sweep past
FACTUAL ERROR — must re-roll. The arresting soldiers are wearing the red croix pattée on white — Templar insignia. These are King Philip IV's royal troops arresting the Templars; they should be in French royal livery or plain mail, never Templar crosses. On a channel built on forensic accuracy this is the kind of detail the audience catches.
Otherwise strong: dead-centre stillness against blurred movement, broken door, scattered documents, frost, dawn-blue against torch-warm.
H1 · Night Street — the chopped coupe
kf-h1-night-street.png · opens the film, over the Drake lyric
License plate visible bottom-left, despite being negated. Also the suit reads brown under heavy sodium — physically plausible, but off-canon if it bothers you. The BMW badge from the first attempt is gone — reframed to a rear three-quarter so the wheel and dash are out of shot.
Register holds: no person in the car, no branding, the severed roofline reads clearly. See the rejected BMW version →
C5 · Home Base — the label returns
kf-c5-home-base.png · final Bridge beat, closes the film
Gold ring on the right hand. Canon is silver only, nothing gold on his person.
Everything else lands: red thread on the wall, blueprint, boxes, floor mist, warm lamp from camera-right, and the label on the blotter is genuinely blank — ready for the CAPUT LVIII stamp.
P2-2 · Teraph Chamber
kf-p2-2-teraph-chamber.png · "your own firstborn son"
Gold ring again — same drift as C5.
Mud-brick, oil-lamp ring on the floor, uplight throwing his shadow up the wall, the mounted head held soft in the far niche exactly as briefed.
H3 · Herodian Court pass
kf-h3-herodian-court.png
Excellent. Dancers' shadows on the stone, torch shafts through haze, Bridge watching from the colonnade — and the empty plate on the table is already a footed stand, tying straight into the mounting-stand motif that pays off in B023.
P1-3 · The Initiation pass
kf-p1-3-initiation.png
Hooded ring in true silhouette, kneeling initiate, gilded reliquary on the altar between candles, Bridge against the wall watching the ritual rather than the men. Prop matches the preceptory plate.
P2-4 · The Prostration pass
kf-p2-4-teraph-prostrate.png
The eeriest plate in the set. Head uplit from the lamp ring with the eye sockets in hollow shadow, smoke, the worshipper face-down with arms extended. Note: this head is raw and desiccated where the Templar one is gilded and wrapped — I'd keep that as a deliberate distinction (ancient practice vs. Templar reliquary), not fix it.
P3-11 · Temple Mount pass
kf-p3-11-temple-mount.png
Ashlar walls, timber shoring, rope into the shaft, lantern on the beam. Strong symmetry down the tunnel.
C6 · The Banknote pass
kf-c6-banknote.png · second-to-last shot
Full intaglio engraving, warm raking light, eyes near centre, zero legible text — which is what usually breaks on a banknote macro.
C2 · Bank Vault pass Register A
kf-c2-bank-vault.png · the one Illuminatus beat
Bare wrists, silver ring, gilded reliquary in white-and-red cloth on the counter beside a deposit slip. Cold fluorescents with the reliquary as the only warm object in the room. Played completely straight.
Preceptory Chamber pass
kf-preceptory.png · carries 5 shots
The strongest plate we've made. Warm stone and near-black, gold as the only real colour, blank parchment label well placed for the CAPUT LVIII stamp. Serves H4, P1-4, P1-7, P1-10 and C1 via framing and re-grade.
