Analysis

Character Development

The Fugitive Task Force

The press release for this episode flags no individual personal-arc beat; the team works the case as the episode's spine. The press-release synopsis flags no individual character-development beat for this episode. Interpretation: the module is kept present with an honest source-anchored statement rather than an invented character beat.
