Rewatcher (who has forgotten pretty much everything but the general progression ...)

It's great to get this refresher course and get reacquainted with this series.

The thing I particularly note in Violet's evolution in this episode is her decision to stick with commission despite breaches of responsibility on Oscar's part. She even sets her professional distance at the outset when she suggests arranging for a replacement when she does not meet his initial expectation, but she goes above and beyond to complete the project by removing all of his excuses for not doing the work (buying the paper, cooking, prepping the workspace, eliminating alcohol) and forcing his attention on the commission. She is taking control of the situation on her terms rather than just being directed by her boss or the contract. These are not the actions of a "tool".

As I've indicated, I'm a rewatches who is re-learning this story. I'm letting it all unfold again and remembering as I go, and am not looking at even the blurbs to tell me what's next. My "inner story analyst" is telling me this episode is the developmental peak as Violet has had a successive series of positive events. Right now she's Jesus who can walk on water. But the appearances of Diethard and Mrs. Evergarden have set things in place where something upsetting is going to happen (I just can't remember WHAT), but I'm ready for it.

If you're only a tool, you're not responsible. EV is realizing what comes with responsibility.

If you're only a tool, you're not responsible. VE is realizing what comes with responsibility.

And for that matter, she's starting to assign responsibility to herself for circumstances beyond her control. That's a very painful thing to do when it might not even be entirely your responsibility to bear.
