Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s urgent instruction for Nyssa to ‘monitor Tegan’ in Episode 5 (noting her awakened state conflicted with her fragile psyche) is echoed when Nyssa finds Tegan in the marketplace in Episode 6—now possessed and mocking, requiring Nyssa to witness Tegan’s betrayal first-hand."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Nyssa’s emotional trajectory—from anticipation of danger to witnessing its fruition—reinforces her role as the narrative’s emotional anchor. This escalation of intimacy lost (Tegan’s warmth turning ‘brittle’) deepens Nyssa’s burden and underscores the cost of the Doctor’s trust in her vigilance.
