## Summary

The single image extracted from the Hymowitz document is the now-familiar turtle photo (INT-002) from the Hamptons dock. This image appears in the Hymowitz document specifically to contradict Tara's claims that:
1. Riley was not at the Hamptons
2. She couldn't leave because the dog was home alone
3. The trip was unplanned ("whisked away")

The document uses the image as direct photographic evidence that these claims are false. The image is already integrated into the blog narrative in B03 as hero evidence. The significance of its appearance in the Hymowitz document is that it demonstrates the factual inaccuracy of materials submitted to a court-appointed forensic evaluator.
