Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's revelation of Vivien Fay's ancient identity (Episode 11) directly leads to the immediate crisis of the hyperspace device's destruction and the need for Emilia to repair it (Episode 12). The direct consequence of this knowledge is Emilia's isolation and the responsibility thrust upon her."
