Why This Matters Across Episodes

This connection traces Turlough's internal conflict from questioning the past to being consumed by it. His growing obsession with the forbidden history of Frontios in Episode 8 directly leads to his psychic collapse under the Tractators' psychic weight in Episode 9.
