Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s stumbling realization about 'temporal striations' at Powis Castle (E19) culminates in his deflection of Romana’s interrogation with vague assurance about ‘difficult to say’ (E20). This continuity traces his struggle to articulate the surreal nature of the collapsing universe, forcing Romana to assert herself.
