Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Brigadier’s behavior in Episode 24—overriding protocol to demand the Doctor’s immediate response—is directly recalled in Episode 25 when he shifts from deferential acknowledgment to issuing a direct order ('That's an order, Sergeant. Now!') in response to the Doctor’s urgent command."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The earlier transgression of radio protocol (overriding Benton) evolves into a fuller authoritarian command style in Episode 25, where he enforces a risky order despite Osgood’s warnings. This shows a character continuity in his willingness to break rules and prioritize mission success over safety—a defining trait of his command in the series.
