Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Bruce’s defiance of the records room’s secrecy (cand_evt_scene_6b81f3a04c6cb0bb_01) is mirrored by Kent’s insistence that Bruce needs to see the evidence in person (cand_evt_scene_8db178e1352e97a2_02). Both characters challenge the regime’s opacity, though Kent seeks truth while Bruce enforces the regime’s false narrative.
