Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
These episodes align thematically through Morgus' transformation of scarcity and tragedy into corporate power. The parallel reveals a systemic pattern: all resources—whether Spectrox or copper—are tools of control, not life-preserving necessities. This underscores the dehumanization of leadership on Androzani Major and Timmin’s complicity in its execution.
