Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tyler's successful infiltration of the Dalek heliport as a Roboman in Episode 5 sets the stage for the failed ambush mission in Episode 6, where the disguise plan backfires."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The infiltration tactic tested in Episode 5 ('disguised as Robomen') is repeated in Episode 6 but fails because the Daleks adapt their tactics. This failure directly causes Tyler's abandonment of the resistance.
