Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The core conflict of the series—Grey's mercenary exploitation of Jacobite prisoners—is established in Episode 15 event 01 ('Grey’s Profit from Prisoners') and carried forward into Episode 16, where the Doctor disrupts these illegal transport plans. This connection drives the central plot across episodes.
