Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Adric’s capture/command of TARDIS controls in Part 1 is mirrored by Nyssa/Tegan’s later reliance on Adric’s systems knowledge (though he’s missing during crisis), reflecting thematic recursiveness of displacement of authority."

Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Instances of companions operating TARDIS (Adric in Part 1, Nyssa/Tegan attempting manual flight in Part 2) bookend the theme of underrecognized skills emerging when the Doctor is impaired.
