Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s insistence that the Cybermen’s evil must remain locked away (Episode 2) becomes the core conflict in Episode 3, where the Cybermen’s plan to repurpose humans is exposed. This escalates the stakes from containment to existential threat.
