Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"K9's narrow escape through the jammed bulkhead door (Ep 25) is mirrored by his physical overpowering by a Krarg in Shada (Ep 26), showing K9's loyalty and durability despite repeated endangerment."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
K9's behavior—escaping narrowly in Episode 25 and then being physically thrown aside in Episode 26—demonstrates K9's unwavering support for the Doctor despite increasingly severe threats. This reinforces K9's role as an ever-loyal companion whose durability is tested.
