Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Gwendoline's early emotional abandonment in Episode 6 (sobbing on stairs, rejected by Pritchard) fuels her manipulative offer of escape to Java in Episode 7. Her vulnerability from Episode 6 re-emerges as a predatory tactic."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
