Jamie and Zoe Discover Corwyn’s Body

Jamie and Zoe’s spacesuits, now removed and discarded near the emergency exit, symbolize the transition from external repair work to the internal crisis unfolding aboard the Wheel.

The suits’ presence serves as a visual reminder of the crew’s shifting priorities: from maintenance to survival.
