I like the idea of someone becoming rich because of what they gave to the world…

On rewatch 6 or 7 now made yet another connection…

In Two Aces (S1, E6) Sam says to Rebecca “I like the idea of someone becoming rich because of what they gave to the world and not just because of who their family is.”

It quickly cuts to Rebecca who has a slightly concerned or holding-back-something face. We know she has money some from her family and a lot from Rupert… so at the moment she’s in the “Who their family is” camp.

Flash forward to the end of So Long, Farewell (S3, E12). And without getting into specifics or spoilers, those that watched it know she becomes far wealthier literally because of what she gave to the Richmond fans…

I just love how all these little bit tie together through all the seasons.

(Edit: I do agree the JK Rowling comment was unfortunate in hindsight, but pretty sure it was made before she started making her anti-trans tweets… but I’m more interested in the thread of how it impacts Rebecca).
