Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s instinct to flee UNIT in Episode 12 reflects his ongoing distrust of UNIT and the Brigadier, setting up his later reliance on and cooperation with Vaughn—a character who is later revealed as an antagonist. This echo shows the Doctor’s vulnerability and the blurred lines between friend and foe.
