Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection highlights Caven's character continuity—his willingness to exploit suffering and leverage coercion remains consistent across episodes. In Part 4, he orders the interrogation of a wounded Space Corps officer, while in Part 5, he plans to kill prisoners as part of his scheme. This shows his escalating brutality and the persistent threat he poses.
