Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Exorse's claim that the Doctor is unharmed and the City's invitation for the companions to join him (Episode 38) is directly contradicted when Dodo vanishes in Episode 39. This callback highlights the City's manipulative nature."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This contradiction emphasizes the theme of false hospitality. The City lures guests with promises of honor and safety, then ensnares them in its predatory system.
