Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s realization that Tegan bears the Mara’s mark (Snakedance Part 2) foreshadows her later demand for the Great Crystal’s location (Snakedance Part 3), where she acts as the Mara’s instrument to retrieve the artifact."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection reflects Tegan’s psychological and narrative trajectory: from being unaware of her possession to actively serving the Mara’s goals. The Doctor’s observation in Part 2 sets up her actions in Part 3.
