Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both scenes depict Susan navigating environments where external threats are real and immediate. In Episode 23, she perceives danger from the environment; in Episode 24, she acts to conquer fear and solve real-world puzzles (tunnels, bridges) with decisive action. This shows her growth from reactive fear to proactive problem-solving.
