Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tegana's exposure of the Doctor in the TARDIS (Episode 17) leads directly to Polo's refusal to use the TARDIS for escape in Episode 18, forcing Ian to innovate with the bamboo trap as a defensive measure."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Ian's shift from planning escape (using the TARDIS) to defensive tactics (using bamboo) is a direct consequence of the Doctor's exposure and Polo's loss of trust. This shows Ian's adaptability in crisis.
