Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

This connection carries Jamie's trajectory of being erased and reconstructed. His literal erasure in Episode 8 mirrors the figurative erasure of his identity in Episode 9, where the Master's dossier reduces him to a predefined role, driving Jamie's distrust and urgency to uncover the truth.
