Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Brigadier's triangulation of the Zygon signal to Loch Ness in Episode 2 foreshadows and escalates into the direct military strike (depth charge) against the Zygon craft in Episode 3, as the threat moves from theoretical to immediate and lethal."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Brigadier's procedural deduction in Episode 2 (pinpointing the signal's origin) becomes the basis for his aggressive military action in Episode 3. The threat's escalation from infiltration to a physical spaceship requiring bombing reflects how the Brigadier's earlier insights drive the narrative toward direct confrontation.
