Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's frustration with the Second Elder's evasion (from Episode 35) aligns with Barbara and Susan's challenge to the First Elder's inaction in Episode 36. Susan's later critique of Sensorite trust ('earned, not assumed') echoes the Doctor's earlier determination to confront hidden enemies."
