Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This causal chain shows how the manipulation of the factory’s operating system in E1 directly enables the overt conversion to Auton labor in E2. Rex is a tool in both actions, his role evolving from reluctant participant to guilty facilitator.
