Who they are
Zuri is the keeper of the ritual and, it turns out, of the cover story — he was in Oakland, he was a War Dog, and he has spent twenty-five years standing beside the throne holding the receipt. The film uses him to make its central point about inheritance: what T'Challa inherits is not only a country but an unpaid debt.
