Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries Ace's emotional arc from E12 ('Ace vows to fight the alien threat') into E13, where her leadership is tested against the group's despair. Midge's earlier cruelty becomes a catalyst for Ace's defiance against the same complacency.
