Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The N.D. Security Officer's role as a dependable tactical specialist under fire is established in Episode 2 (co-piloting the shuttle) and continues in Episode 4 (participating in the ambushed away team, providing covering fire). This shows consistent professional competence and duty under threat across different mission contexts.
