Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In Episode 6, David and Susan debate whether to stay and fight or flee Earth entirely (survival vs. resistance). In Episode 7, their sewer journey forces them to confront the moral ambiguity of survival in a depraved, resource-starved underground (e.g., 'Survive at all costs').
