Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"In Episode 13 (cand_evt_scene_bb0a97304199921a_3), the Doctor deduces the Daleks need his brainwaves intact, a vulnerability he exploits to stall. In Episode 14 (cand_evt_scene_d6f0fd5a4a940051_2), this knowledge facilitates his ability to disarm Mercer and raise a weapon to Davros—proving he still retains mental control despite psychic extraction."
