Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Royce's dismissive attitude toward Romana's competence as a navigator (seen in Episode 18) continues when he questions Rorvik's order for the MZ device in Episode 19, reflecting his persistent skepticism and resistance to change."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Royce's skepticism remains a consistent trait across episodes. While he obeys orders, his questions in Episode 19 (about Rorvik's motives for the MZ) mirror his earlier dismissal of Romana, painting him as a character questioning authority but ultimately compliant.
