Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The observation of the factory's automation in Part 3 ('turning over to automation') is echoed in Part 4 during the Doctor and Liz's investigation of Madame Tussauds' plastic replicas, where automation is repurposed for sinister replication, not efficiency."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Hibbert's explanation of automation in the factory ('keeping staff down to a minimum') foreshadows the Nestene's use of automation to mass-produce replicas. The callback emphasizes the Nestene's hijacking of industrial processes, turning human systems into tools of conquest.
