Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The contrast between the TARDIS's alien nature and Tegan's expectation of a fixed, mechanical system (seen in Episode 25) parallels her confusion in Episode 26 when navigating the TARDIS's shifting corridors, neither of which behave as she expects."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both episodes explore Tegan's inability to impose human-scale logic on alien systems. Episode 25 shows her struggling with a flat tire and car repairs; Episode 26 shows her trying to navigate a sentient spaceship that defies her understanding.
