Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Benton's reporting of the suspicious body and car in Part 1 establishes him as a reliable source of intelligence within UNIT. In Part 3, his ability to relay urgent information (e.g., the presence of the TARDIS) is critical but also exploited by the Master, showing the double-edged nature of his reliability.
