Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Great Intelligence's use of Victoria as leverage in Ep 5 foreshadows the pyramid machine's role in Ep 6 as both a physical and mental trap. The escalation from a Yeti hostage to a machine designed to drain minds underscores the Intelligence's growing menace.
