Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Zoe's leadership and adaptability in volunteering to navigate the ventilator shaft in Episode 26 mirrors her earlier role in problem-solving under pressure in Episode 25, where she calculated the retro-rocket timing."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Zoe's transition from astrogator calculating trajectories to a volunteer in a dangerous maintenance tunnel demonstrates her character's consistent blend of pragmatism and risk-taking. The Doctor's earlier dismissal of her concerns (placing her in a stranded position) indirectly forces her to take initiative in Episode 26.
