Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Fire Escape's casual acceptance of the Yellow Kangs' extermination ('All. unalive now') in Episode 5 escalates to the Doctor explicitly naming the Cleaners as a shared enemy in Episode 6."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's harrowing revelations about the Cleaners' purge (Episode 6) directly confront Fire Escape's earlier indifference to systemic violence (Episode 5). This escalation forces her to confront the logical extension of her own faction's ruthlessness, driving her character towards uneasy alliance.
