Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s initial distrust of surface-level resolutions (revealed through his caution after Romana uncovers the Guide's control program) solidifies his role as an outsider preserving critical foresight. This continuity underscores his inability to trust facile endings—key to his Time Lord instincts.
