Why These Connect

"Maxtible's initial greed and opportunism (celebrating the Daleks' 'humanization') evolves into delusional faith in their promises by the next episode."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection tracks Theodore Maxtible's moral descent. In the first event, he hails the Daleks' childlike mimicry as a triumph of humanization (cand_evt_scene_07e9b29306aebd90_01), but by the next episode, his arrogance has congealed into blind devotion to their false promises of alchemical gold (cand_evt_scene_16bc6b799bf4d9d9_01). This continuity foregrounds his irredeemable betrayal trajectory.
