Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jano's order to capture Steven and Dodo (cand_evt_scene_adea47e2723da85c_02) parallels Chal's observation that the Doctor is 'like many of our people' (cand_evt_scene_6e859fe74a22fbcb_01) in being drained by the Elders, extending the theme of shared victimhood across episodes."
