And also, yes
R. Frederick O'Reilly is a direct homage to the 1973 Toei tokusatsu show "Robot Detective" and its titular character K
Firstly, it's said in Job that nobody (presumably except God) is fierce enough to awaken Leviathan
Who awakens (and commands) Leviathan? (this sequence is rather good and even better now, to transition from Alex saying this and Leviathan destroying this plant)
And finally, fantastically, we see that despite Alex's best attempts, Roger (foreshadowing his /true/ role) steps in and becomes "He who will save those of us who have been forsaken by these times [see: Alex, Paradigm]."
It's nice
It's poetic
One man fights for something more--
In a heartbreaking turn of events, Roscoe dies (even more that his precious memories are used and discarded next episode thus invalidating his indulgent fantasy) but on a positive note RDW sees how deeply a human can truly love a robot--and that moment's not wasted on her.
And I /do/ like how once being offered every single answer to every question Roger could ever have about The Past via Roscoe's memories, there's a moment of weakness in Roger; if Alan hadn't of stolen the disc, what /would/ Roger had done?
Intriguing

His role in the Nightingale story is of the "emperor of a far off land," but I doubt any of that had any meaning or bearing on the narrative as a whole
