How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Both episodes feature Kirsten in high-stakes 'hunting' scenarios: Episode 2 with the ice cream van raid alongside Cawood, Episode 3 with the fatal traffic stop of Lewis's white van. Both reflect Kirsten's competence and bravery, but also her exposure to unseen predators (Tommy)."
