Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s witnessing of Barbara’s defiance and Tavius’s exorbitant bid in Episode 13 fuels his urgency to confront Nero’s court directly in Episode 14. His shift from observer to instigator in Episode 14 is a direct response to the moral and physical threats seen in the auction.
