Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s attempt to stabilize Peri with the queen bat’s milk (while collapsing himself) directly influences his paranoia and violence later when he reacts aggressively to Peri’s unfamiliar clothing and presence."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s physical collapse and trauma (both saving Peri and then nearly dying from the same poison) creates a psychological fracture that manifests as paranoid delusions about Peri. Her presence, now associated with his survival—and thus his instability—triggers his violent outburst.
