Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Soldeed’s early curiosity and distrust of the TARDIS foreshadows his later reckless alliance with the Nimons and his willingness to destroy his own planet. His arc from skepticism to fanatical collaboration with the Nimons is a direct escalation of his initial character traits.
