Offset mortises in head and foot corner to receive folding side rail tenons

In the head of the bed the mortises for the curved tenons lean 1/8" to the right and in the foot of the bed they lean 1/8" to the left. This will allow the folding side rails to scissor over and under each other as they fold.
