Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Polly's determination to 'get them off' the Annabelle in Episode 17 is consistent with her continued engagement in Episode 18, where she listens to Ben's escape and participates in planning the rescue. This shows her character arc as a loyal companion who maintains her focus on helping others despite setbacks.
