For a good time, I highly recommend JCS' valiant efforts to try and squeeze meaning from this episode like blood from a stone in the BA on Flux. It's an excellent essay, don't get me wrong, you can just hear him tearing his hair out at how few of these strands go anywhere or mean anything but trying not to say so too rudely.

"It’s like Chibnall wrote this, changed his mind about who Karvanista was and never bothered to go back and rewrite anything?"

It's the Broadchurch finale problem again isn't it? The man only seems willing/able to write sequentially, one page at a time, weirdly not thinking once that you can go back and tweak things. Like the old paper-based game "Consequences".
