How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s rush to claim Palmerdale’s diamonds (insurance for future power) mirrors his frantic later search for Leela in Titan Base’s corridors. Both reflect a desperate retrieval of what is precious under existential duress: resources vs. companionship."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
