Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Vicki's integration into Troy as Cressida (seen in Episode 7) parallels her later role as a pawn in Troy's fortunes (Episode 8), where Priam credits her for the Greeks' departure, contrasting her passive 'luck' with Cassandra's accusations."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events highlight the theme of Vicki as an unwitting agent of change in Troy, caught between Cassandra's distrust and the Trojans' shifting loyalties. This reflects the broader conflict between perception (Cassandra's prophecies) and reality (Vicki's accidental influence).
