Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks transition from active pursuers in Mechanus (Episode 35) to a looming, symbolic threat in the TARDIS (Episode 36). Their implied presence (Vicki’s jump to 'Daleks') acts as a callback that unifies the series during a period of companions' departure and change.
About Callback Connections
B explicitly references A. A later moment deliberately echoes an earlier one, creating a sense of narrative completeness and rewarding memory.
