Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's clinical examination of Sarah's contracted hand in Episode 5 (muscular rigidity from the alien artifact) is explicitly contrasted with her unscathed physical state despite lethal radiation exposure in Episode 6."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This forms a thematic contrast where the hand's influence protects her from radiation (supernatural) despite the Doctor's expectations of fatal exposure, creating a supernatural counterpoint to his scientific analysis.
