Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Jenny’s initial confrontation with Kevin in Episode 3 over the money’s moral weight ('Leave it somewhere') evolves into a full moral reckoning in Episode 4 as the consequences of his actions (and Ashley’s coercion) spiral irreversibly. The same kitchen becomes the site of Kevin’s breakdown, tying the domestic scale of his crimes together.
