Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and companions' involvement in the Xeron revolution and their subsequent departure from Xeros (made possible by Vicki, Episode 28) is directly observed by the Daleks, prompting their vow of eternal pursuit (Episode 29)."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks’ detection of the Doctor’s movement through time and space is a direct reaction to his escape from Xeros, which was enabled by the events of Episode 28. This escalates the conflict across episodes.
