Hey, Remember When Episode Submissions Mattered to the Emmys?
Briefly

Lead and supporting performers in Drama and Comedy submit specific episodes for Emmy voting after nominations are announced. Pedro Pascal, Adam Scott, and Noah Wyle submitted their chosen episodes. Pascal's submission interconnects closely with the show's primary relationship. Scott's entry is a dramatic negotiation scene likely to appeal to voters. Conversely, Wyle’s submission lacks emotional intensity. The significance of submission episodes has diminished since a 2015 Emmys voting procedure change, allowing broader participation without mandatory viewing of the submitted episodes.
In 2015, the Emmys changed their voting procedures, ending the era of volunteer-based blue-ribbon panels of select Academy voters who had to watch all the submitted episodes before voting for the winners.
Pedro Pascal submitted the episode that flashes back to him admitting the truth of the season-one finale to Ellie. Adam Scott submitted the season-two finale that featured Innie Mark and Outie Mark in a tense negotiation.
