Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Ffinch's authority is undermined in Episode 15 by his paranoia about disguised Jacobites, and this theme directly continues in Episode 16, where his authority is stripped physically (trapped in the pit) and financially (Sergeant's bribe). The earlier seeds of Ffinch's incompetence pay off in the Sergeant's exploitation of his vulnerability."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The earlier establishment of Ffinch's character as a foppish but authoritarian figure creates a direct callback in Episode 16, where his authority crumbles. This reinforces the larger conflict between oppressive systems and individual resilience.
About Callback Connections
B explicitly references A. A later moment deliberately echoes an earlier one, creating a sense of narrative completeness and rewarding memory.
