Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tegan’s refusal to prioritize her own safety—choosing to stay and rescue the Doctor in Episode 14—mirrors her later devotion to Peri, even as the Doctor’s regeneration crisis unfolds. Both scenes show Tegan rejecting survivalist logic to save a companion, signaling a core loyalty that transcends immediate self-interest."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
