Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's defiance of the Kroton test to protect Zoe (Episode 20) reflects his consistent pattern of prioritizing companions' safety over his own well-being. This character trait continues into Episode 21, where his dismissal of Jamie's safety in favor of the TARDIS is rooted in this same tendency."
