Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Broton's declaration to destroy UNIT and the Doctor in Episode 2, combined with his order to deploy the Skarasen, escalates the Zygons' ruthless tactics and sets the immediate threat that Harry's sabotage directly responds to in Episode 3."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The escalation of hostilities into total war in Episode 2 (via Skarasen deployment) makes the stakes undeniable and forces Harry into a desperate act of sabotage in Episode 3 to counter the threat. This raises tension and drives the plot forward.
