Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The presence of Dalek 2 in tracking and pursuing Kurt's group in Episode 10 establishes its operational role and familiarity with chase tactics, which then carries over into Episode 11 where it participates in searching for Zephon under Dalek 1's command."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Dalek 2’s subordinate but active participation in pursuit operations in both episodes ties its role across boundaries. Its functional continuity—receiving orders, relaying information, and executing tactical coordination—demonstrates a persistent character continuity in operational behavior.
