Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Polly's emergence from hiding traumatized in E20 ('They were going to turn me into a fish') directly informs her use of the voice-distorting device to trick Zaroff's temple in E21. Her desperation and resourcefulness are consistent across both episodes."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Polly's trauma and survival instinct from E20 (cand_evt_scene_446ca40fdbf093f1_01-02) are channeled into her resourceful deception in E21 (cand_evt_scene_816fe891a8fa4708_01), where she uses the voice-distorting device to create the 'voice of Amdo'. This maintains her arc as a survivor adapting to extreme circumstances.
