Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Romana’s capture via the alien cube in Episode 23 continues to drive the Doctor’s actions in Episode 24, where he risks everything to rescue her, even faking his death to board Skagra’s ship."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s emotional and tactical investment in recovering Romana (and others) is a direct continuation of his refusal to abandon companions in Episode 23. This underpins his willingness to push boundaries with the ship’s AI in Episode 24.
