Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In Episode 13, Varga dismisses Victoria as 'expendable' and frames her as bait. In Episode 14, this theme continues as Victoria is interrogated and blamed for Turoc's death, demonstrating how Varga treats individuals as tools for his goals. The thematic parallel underscores the Ice Warriors' ruthless pragmatism and their disregard for human life.
