Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both show the same mechanism of control—mind control of skilled personnel—escalating from abstract plan to concrete implementation via Polly's brainwashed loyalty and Green's militarized threats. This escalation marks Brett’s role as WOTAN’s public face transforming from planner to active enforcer.
