_I scan, I put something in my basket, then I close the browser completely. When I open it again on the same phone and scan the same code, I should be back in the same meal with my basket intact. After staff close the table, the same act should NOT let me back in - it should start me afresh._

### 01 · PATRON

**I expected:** I scan, and I put something in my basket

**I saw:** 9 dishes; my basket reads 1; the app shows a live table session (1).

### 02 · PATRON

**I expected:** I close the browser completely, then open it again and re-scan

**I saw:** I am back in: 9 dishes, live table session shown, and my basket still reads "1" - the same as before I shut the browser.

> **Every owner screen searched for a way to close the session:**
>
> - `/owner/host-station/` → nothing that closes a table
> - `/owner/experience/` → nothing that closes a table
> - `/owner/tables/` → nothing that closes a table
> - `/owner/orders/` → nothing that closes a table
> - `/owner/dashboard/` → nothing that closes a table

### 03 · OWNER

**I expected:** Now staff close the session — I go and find that control

**I saw:** STOPPED — No control in the owner app closes a table session, so the negative half of this journey - cold start BLOCKED after a close, and a rescan starting a fresh session - cannot be reached.

---

**Verdict:** STOPPED

**Why it ended here:** No control in the owner app closes a table session, so the negative half of this journey - cold start BLOCKED after a close, and a rescan starting a fresh session - cannot be reached.
