Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Mara's physical manifestation through Tegan in Episode 5 (cand_evt_scene_b4ce3000bc3e9c9c_2) is the direct catalyst for the Doctor's frantic warnings about the Great Crystal and the Legend of the Return in Episode 6 (cand_evt_scene_7c6febf6a0cdc87a_1).
