Curatorial Note

Brick's 'I'll keep working until it's done' collides with checkpoint logic; the second caption reframes the same pose as a successful task abandonment.

Visible copy: BRICK: “I’LL KEEP WORKING UNTIL IT’S DONE.” / BRICK AT EVERY CHECKPOINT: TASK ABANDONED SUCCESSFULLY

The “until it’s done” clause has been satisfied.
