Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events focus on the Doctor's cognitive resistance: first against a disembodied voice trying to control him (Part 1), then against metaphysical riddles and illusions meant to deceive and erase identity (Part 2). Jamie is central to both as a source of voice and as target of erasure.
