Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s willingness to court danger to protect Peri is a consistent emotional throughline. The earlier near-sacrifice in the android corridor prefigures his relentless, self-endangering flight in Episode 21. Both scenes are tense, high-stakes sequences where Peri’s survival is the stated goal.
