VISITOR 4 — Shakes the palm; coconut rolls into the ocean

VISITOR 4 on PS1 at night: Johnny stands beside the palm tree, a freshly fallen coconut on the sand at his feet, about to roll right off the island into the ocean.
VISITOR 4 on PS1, captured during the v0.8.4-ps1 chapter-select grind. The frozen-just-before-the-punchline beat: Johnny has shaken the palm, the coconut has dropped to the sand, the next frame rolls it off the island into the ocean — straight down the drain. VISITOR 4 was the canonical source of the v0.8.4 caption-mismap chain — the original audit attached "coconut plane hit" here, but on-PS1 playback showed there's no plane in this scene; the throw-coconut-at-plane gag lives at VISITOR 5. See the FAQ Q on caption-vs-scene-title divergence.

What this scene is

Johnny grabs the palm tree and shakes it. A coconut drops loose, hits the ground, and rolls right off the edge of the island into the ocean — straight down the drain. Confirmed by direct on-PS1 playback observation while capturing the chapter-select thumbnail; the earlier “coconut plane hit” caption-mapping guess was wrong (no plane in the on-PS1 pack).

How this scene gets validated

The same way every scene does: under the FISHING 1 bar.

A host-side Johnny Reborn capture/export pass produces a base-diff .FG2 foreground pack and a JSONL of sound events. The PS1 build replays that pack at native resolution through every variant the original game randomized between (night, low-tide, holiday overlays, raft-stage progress where applicable). The regtest harness checks that the visuals come out frame-identical and the SFX cues land on the same ticks. Once that holds across all applicable variants, the scene moves to validated and a row turns green in the ledger.

VISITOR 4 uses the generic normal/far-left/far-right foreground-only multi-view stitch so island-relative action is complete across production placements.
