In L.A. Crimes Case 3, do the red squares on the time track cost Stress?

Players agree on the overtime reading; the end-of-day interaction is unexplained.

Yes. Red squares are overtime spaces, and the base rulebook says each hour worked after 4:00 PM adds 1 Stress token, which can end the investigation if you reach the case's Stress limit. One player reports using Authority tokens to avoid that Stress, but the cited posts do not explain how.
