Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The shift from masked to unmasked enforcers under Rask (Cand_evt_scene_641384fc3a3c623a_2) is mirrored by his escalation into trapping the Doctor in the P7E airlock (Cand_evt_scene_d2a8a9664d13a88e_1), showing how the regime’s cruelty becomes ever more overt and confrontational.
