Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Thous' trajectory from questioning Zaroff's authority to embracing a secular vision of Atlantis without superstition is thematically consistent. Damon's rejection of memorializing the Doctor with a temple and Thous' concurrence reflects a shared arc of disillusionment with the old order.
