Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The tension between official Dulcian leadership (Balan/Senex) and dissent (Cully, Doctor) recurs when the Doctor and Zoe expose the Dominators’ exploitation. This thematic parallel critiques institutional refusal to act against oppression.
