Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Ian’s refusal to abandon Wells under Roboman threat in E7 (where he says, ‘We can't leave him here’) echoes in E8 when he risks detection to call out to Barbara, refusing to abandon someone he knows is captive, even at great personal risk."
