Crazy lead-in on last contour pass

I'm getting a crazy lead-in move on the last pass of my 2D contour operations that I can't explain or figure out how to change.  I've never encountered anything like this before and am out of ideas.  Setting the preferred lead-in point to the corner of the part didn't help.  I've included the design file as well.  And before anyone tells me my setup isn't rigid enough, I will use a tailstock with a live center to support the end of the stock.  I just don't see the point of modeling it right now.

Hi

You get this when using "Stock Contours", it is kinda an odd behavior.

 

You can get rid of it by Turning off the lead in in the linking tab, the toolpath will still go outside the stock contours it just wont have the vertical radii anymore.

 

I find this works fine.

That did the trick!  Thanks for the tip, I'll have to add it to my tips and tricks notebook.
