Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Borusa’s dismissive rejection of the Doctor’s traitor theory in Episode 2 is echoed when the Castellan presents the traitor (Hedin) as a revelation in Episode 3, making Borusa’s earlier dismissal a dramatic irony."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Borusa’s refusal to investigate the traitor in Episode 2 (despite the Doctor’s warning) contrasts with the Castellan’s presentation of Hedin as the traitor in Episode 3. This callback exposes the Council’s systemic blindness and amplifies Thalia’s and Borusa’s institutional bias.
