The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor’s intuitive probing of Turlough’s nervousness in Part 2 aligns with his later observation of Turlough’s unresolved feelings for Malkon in Part 3. This continuity highlights the Doctor’s growing awareness of Turlough’s personal ties to Sarn, which will later bind him to action.
