A neighbor's offhand remark at a Tuesday morning gathering placed Lee Harvey Oswald inside the Texas School Book Depository six weeks before the Kennedy assassination. That collision of the mundane and the catastrophic sits at the centre of this episode — and it raises the question that has haunted investigators for sixty years: how much of what happened in Dealey Plaza was arranged, and how much of it was accident?

This chapter works through the physical evidence layer by layer. Oswald's background as a Marine radar operator, his 1959 defection to the Soviet Union, his return with a Soviet wife, his pro-Castro activism in New Orleans, and his deeply ambiguous contacts with Cuban and Soviet embassies in Mexico City in the weeks before November 22nd. Then the rifle: a Mannlicher-Carcano ordered by mail in March 1963 under the alias A. Hidell, paid for by money order, supported by forged identification. Not impulsive — premeditated.

On November 22nd, the motorcade route brought the presidential limousine directly beneath the Book Depository's southeast windows. Howard Brennan and teenage witness Amos Euins both reported seeing a rifle in that sixth-floor window. The Warren Commission's 1964 report concluded Oswald fired three shots. The autopsy was consistent with fire from above and behind.

But then there is the single bullet theory — one round passing through Kennedy's neck and producing multiple wounds to Governor John Connally. Critics called it physically impossible. Defenders say the geometry of the seating positions makes it plausible. Six decades later, the debate is still live, the sealed files are still generating headlines, and the answer is still not clean.
