Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The theft of jethrik (discovered in Episode 2 via cand_evt_scene_a0b4483d7d1d621e_1) escalates to the Graff's disproportionate response in Episode 3 (cand_evt_scene_2f9d2a2b284e06d0_1), where he prioritizes recovering 'his gold' over the wellbeing of his crew, showing how paranoia over the deposit fuels his tyranny.
