Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Hermack's 'I am going to get that gang of murdering thieves if I have to spend the next ten years out here' in Part 1 echoes his accusatory certainty that Clancey is guilty in Part 2 ('Well, I explained to you the purpose of this mission. I believe that Clancey has connection with the argonite pirates.')."
