Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' tactical shift in Episode 9 from surveilling the Thals to focusing on internal radiation recovery escalates into explicit genocide in Episode 11, where they refuse the Doctor's plea and begin a countdown to irradiate Skaro."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks' prioritization of their own survival (radiation dependency) in Episode 9 directly leads to their genocidal actions in Episode 11. Their unwillingness to coexist, established in Episode 9, manifests in their final solution to the Thal 'threat.'
