Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The escalation from exposure (Doctor's revelation) to internal dissension (Trantis' challenge) shows the fracturing trust within the Dalek alliance, directly fueled by Chen's earlier actions and their consequences. This heightens the stakes for Chen's survival.
