Villar challenges the resistance’s unity

Zoe’s officer’s cap is a symbolic and functional marker of her authority within the British Command Post. It signals her leadership role in the resistance, particularly in the absence of Russell, and serves as a visual contrast to Villar’s more rugged and individualistic demeanor. The cap underscores Zoe’s dual identity as both a strategist and a fighter, reinforcing her credibility as she defends the resistance’s plan. Its presence also highlights the formalized structure of the resistance, which Villar challenges with his skepticism and authoritarian approach.

Before: Worn by Zoe as she prepares to engage Villar, symbolizing her readiness to lead and defend the resistance’s cause.
After: Remains on Zoe’s head, now reinforced by her successful defense of the resistance’s plan and Villar’s conditional agreement to stay for the meeting.
