Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Steven and Chal's infiltration of the city via the hidden entrance (Episode 40) enables Steven's ambush on Edal and Jano's patrol in Episode 41. The captured light gun used in Episode 40 becomes the tool of Steven's failed ambush in Episode 41."
