Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Dr. Summers' clinical detachment in examining victims of the Keller machine in Episode 5 (notably in 'The Doctor Examines a Suspicious Death') carries over into Episode 6, where he again assesses post-treatment patients with professional objectivity ('An idiot, or a saint.')."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This reflects Summers' role as a medical authority who remains focused on empirical outcomes even as the moral and ethical implications of the Keller process become apparent. His continuity underscores his institutional role and growing unease with the machine's use.
