Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jamie and Phipps' covert observation of Slaar dispatching seed pods to Paris (and recognizing Fewsham's complicity) directly enables Zoe's confrontation with Fewsham in Part 5, where his coerced role is exposed."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The earlier espionage creates the context for Zoe to challenge Fewsham's loyalty, bridging his internal conflict with external stakes (the invasion). This escalates the resistance's awareness of the human collaborator dynamic.
