Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The pursuit dynamic from Episode 21 transitions into the tunnel navigation in Episode 22, with the stakes rising from evasion to physical peril. Jamie’s protective instincts first seen in Episode 21’s disguised confrontation with Zaroff resurface forcefully in Episode 22 as he guides Polly through danger.
