Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

In Episode 19, Steven resists Sara's idea to warn the Doctor, fearing it would make the Doctor more likely to intervene. In Episode 20, Steven again insists on caution against Sara's push for a direct assault on the Dalek city. This parallel underscores Steven's consistent role as the voice of reason and caution.
