Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Daleks’ extermination order and seismic detection in Episode 31 (cand_evt_scene_bd9ab5c816a2e4cc_01; cand_evt_scene_75aad36de0f1b9fc_01) are logically prefigured by Barbara’s interception of their transmission in Episode 30 (cand_evt_scene_21b5855c8609bdac_01), where their time machine and intent are revealed.
