Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Keiko is indirectly referenced in both episodes as an absent-presence shaping Miles' behavior—first via his clumsiness in hanging plants for her (Episode 14), then as the target of his violent jealousy (Episode 17). Her role as a stabilizing domestic force is inverted into a source of conflict under duress."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both scenes involve Keiko as a catalyst for Miles' actions, but the emotional tone shifts from affectionate (epitomized by his clumsy nurturing) to hostile (his unfounded accusations), highlighting thematic continuity around marital vulnerability.
