Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries the central inciting incident of the series: the detection of unnatural meteorites enables Seeley's poaching of an alien artifact. Sam Seeley's actions in Episode 2 (concealing the globe) stem directly from this discovery.
