How these two moments in the story relate

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks’ failure to locate Zephon directly results in their deployment of the Remoteiser to stop the Doctor and his companions. This causal chain maintains tension and escalates the conflict between the Doctor and the Daleks.
