Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Walters' initial question to Arden—'must we stick to that?'—about the computerised schedule echoes Clent’s later admission of the computer’s self-preservation motives in Episode 15."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Walters' early skepticism toward rigid protocol (manifested in questioning the schedule) is retrospectively validated when Clent exposes the computer's underlying motive—self-preservation—mirroring the conflict between protocol and human value.
