Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Dulcians' dismissal of Cully's warnings ( Episode 2) is mirrored by the Dominators' clinical assessment of Dulcian prisoners' endurance ( Episode 3), both treating the Dulcians as a subject of study rather than beings to be engaged or protected."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The external powers—Dulcian Council and Dominators—both objectify the Dulcians, first ignoring their plight, then analyzing their physical limits as resources. Zoe, as an outsider, becomes the exception who resists this objectification.
