Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Gilbert's character trajectory starts with a small act of disruption (halting the Kandyman) and escalates to a pivotal confrontation where he undermines the Kandyman's authority entirely. This continuity reinforces his role as a subtle but essential antagonist to the regime.
