Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's scolding of Barbara in Episode 27 for reckless intervention foreshadows Susan's own defiance of Aztec norms in Episode 28. Both scenes show the companions facing consequences for their actions and beliefs, with Susan rejecting the role thrust upon her by the Aztecs."
