Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Jamie's action in Part 3 (stealing keys to unlock the forbidden shaft) results in his violent capture by guards in Part 4, which Ola uses to challenge the Pilot's authority. Without Jamie's defiance in Part 3, this confrontation would not occur in Part 4.
