Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Great Intelligence's tactics evolve from sabotaging tools (explosives) to abducting a key asset (Travers), reflecting its methodical and multi-pronged strategy. Both events subvert expectations (explosives failing, Travers being spared) and underscore the Intelligence's long-term planning.
