How these two moments in the story relate

Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Preslin's warning about the Abbot's danger (Episode 22) foreshadows his political agency in Episode 23, where the Abbot is (indoctrinately) the unseen force behind the assassination plot. This connection links the abstract threat of the Abbot in Episode 22 to his concrete actions in Episode 23.
