Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection is the direct cause of the escalating crisis in Part 6. The Junior Silurian’s decision to weaponize Baker in Part 5 (cand_evt_scene_bb623865aac1ff91_02) results in Baker becoming an infected individual whose case spreads the virus, as referenced by the Brigadier and Doctor in Part 6 (cand_evt_scene_4ebcd761cce5ed55_01). This is a clear causal chain linking the Silurian laboratory experiment to the UNIT quarantine measures.
