Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Adric's decision to disable K9 and abandon the group in Episode 18 creates a moral and operational rift that directly informs his later alliance with Romana in Episode 19. Their shared hiding place behind the MZ device reflects a continuity of choice: both have opted out of Rorvik's regime and seek concealment and resistance.
