Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's warning about the Keller machine's alien parasite in Part 4 explicitly references his earlier deduction about the machine's extraterrestrial origin (Part 3), reinforcing thematic continuity about unknown threats."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's hypothesis about the machine's nature (Part 3) is explicitly validated in dialogue in Part 4, where he informs the Master about the parasitic entity inside the machine—a callback to his earlier deductive reasoning.
