Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's persistent prioritization of scientific threats (the Keller Machine) over immediate military threats (the Master's missile) mirrors his later dismissal of the Master as a non-threat in The Claws of Axos Part 1, showing his consistent focus on unconventional dangers."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection highlights the Doctor's character arc: his habit of 'thinking outside the box' and ignoring conventional threat assessments persists into the next episode, where he dismisses the Master despite UNIT's concerns. It establishes his stubborn independence from military logic.
