Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Morgan's trajectory from a loyal but ruthless IMC officer (willing to kill in Episode 18) to a rogue leader clinging to authority in Episode 20 highlights a clear arc of moral and operational collapse within the IMC Armed Security Forces as a systemic force.
