Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The theatrical and public nature of the red cloth execution ritual in Episode 19 is paralleled by the androids’ mechanical execution of humans without belt plates in Episode 20. Both represent institutionalized forms of juridical or automated 'execution' without due process."

The longer arc this connection carries
