Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Dastari’s collapse after the Sontaran ambush in Episode 7 shows his physical and moral vulnerability. This sense of being acted upon — rather than acting — carries forward in Episode 8 as he is manipulated by Stike and Chessene, yet still resists total violence when possible.
