Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Arbitan's mention of his daughter in Episode 21 ('Perhaps you will bring me news of my daughter') is mirrored by the Doctor's later mention of Arbitan's mission in Episode 22, connecting the narrative threads of search and loss."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
These events establish Arbitan's motivation as a driving force in both episodes: his desperation for his daughter's return and his reliance on the Doctor and companions to retrieve the keys. The callback reinforces Arbitan’s voice as a lingering influence even after his death.
