Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events showcase the Doctor's willingness to manipulate the environment under extreme duress—first to escape orbital assault, then to break free from reactor confinement. This reinforces his role as an improviser in crises, escalating in stakes and resourcefulness.
