Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Both episodes depict Toba enforcing forced labor on Dulcians, but in Ep 4, Rago replaces Toba as the wielder of that control, embodying the shift in power from Toba to Rago within the Dominator hierarchy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Toba's brutality toward Dulcians in Ep 3 (cand_evt_scene_858881c16c952e2f) is co-opted and weaponized against him personally in Ep 4 by Rago, showing how power tools are also turned into instruments of subjugation.
