Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Tegan's disruptive run during the Master's escape at Pharos alerts the security guards, who then directly pursue the companions to the TARDIS in the next episode, continuing the chase without interruption."

Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The chaos Tegan causes in the earlier scene breaks the group's cover and signals the guards, leading them to follow the companions as they try to escape with the regenerating Doctor. This causal chain ties the two episodes' security conflict together.
