Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The establishment of Bragen’s martial law in Ep13 (immediately after Hensell’s assassination) parallels the Daleks' public shift to extermination in Ep14. Both represent coordinated dehumanization: Bragen strips humans of agency as the Daleks strip them of life. The resonance between political tyranny and extermination underscores their shared agenda.
