Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Jamie's paralysis in Episode 14 sets up a thematic parallel where both characters grapple with forms of helplessness—Jamie physically and Penley emotionally/enable-wise—in Episode 15. This highlights the contrast between Storr's mastery with a bow (referenced in Episode 15) and Penley's inadequacy with only a tranquilizer gun.
