Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The cry for help motif transcends episodes: first Barbara trapped (Episode 23), then Ian hearing (and acting on) a distress signal echoed by Altos’s cry (Episode 24). The emotional trigger—fear for loved ones and comrades—binds these moments.
