Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In both episodes, the Doctor dismisses allies' warnings: Romana's tactical role in Ep 2 is downgraded to observation, while K9's alerts about the transmat are ignored in Ep 22."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This recurring pattern—overriding allies' expertise—underscores the Doctor's overconfidence and the moral tension of his mission. Romana's earlier questioning ('her role as lookout tests her readiness') evolves into Romana's futile shouting to stop him in Ep 22.
