Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Mace's curiosity about the TARDIS’s origin ( Episode 16) foreshadows the Cranleigh family’s fixation on identity and doubles in Episode 17, particularly the resemblance of Nyssa to the late Ann Talbot and the black orchid mystery."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The theme of hidden identity (TARDIS, alien devices) expands into doubles and secrets (Nyssa’s likeness, the captive, masked figures). Mace’s questioning plants the seed for the episode’s identity-based mystery.
