Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's use of Davros as a hostage in E3 to force Daleks to stand down (a manipulation of power dynamics) parallels the Doctor's later manipulation of the Movellan spacecraft and prisoners in E4 to seize control. Both involve the Doctor outmaneuvering his enemies by controlling key leverage points."
