Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jago’s bluster and authority-seeking in Episode 23 escalate into his shameless exploitation of horror in Episode 24 as a commercial opportunity."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Jago’s calculated claim of Scotland Yard ties and pomoising demeanor in E23 reaches a thematic and narrative peak when he sees the wardrobe of dead girls and immediately shifts to exploiting the horror for profit (E24: 'Conducted tours, bob a nob. I'm on to a fortune here'). This shows a moral and behavioral escalation: from playing the authority figure to embracing monstrosity for gain — a direct intensification of his character trajectory.
