Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's ruthless deception of Jackson (using fake cylinders in 'Underworld') foreshadows his willingness to sign a manipulative accord with the Vardans ('The Invasion of Time'). Both events reveal his pragmatic use of artifacts/agreements to control others."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's repeated use of artifacts (fake cylinders/Oracle's control unit in 'Underworld') to manipulate allies directly parallels his exploitation of the Vardan's 'control accord' in 'The Invasion of Time'. This hints at his growing mastery of deception for political ends, escalating his role as a rogue manipulator.
