Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's high-risk infiltration plan on Skaro—using stealth and sabotage against Dalek communications—foreshadows the Earth resistance fighters' later tactics of disguising as Robomen and planting bombs inside the Dalek saucer. Both operations rely on covert insertion and explosive payloads to strike at Dalek power."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection shows how the Doctor's innovative resistance strategy on Skaro becomes a template for human defiance on Earth. Even though the Doctor is not directly involved in the Earth bomb attack, the same principle of exploiting Dalek overconfidence through disguise and sabotage recurs, demonstrating the continuity of anti-Dalek tactics across space and time.
