Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
After discarding Chang (Episode 23), Weng-Chiang’s identity and plans unravel further in Episode 24. The moment he is interrupted while packing (Episode 24) is a direct escalation of his prior desperation—having no enforcer left, he must flee, exposing his precarious position.
