Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' pursuit after the stolen taranium core (forged by Steven’s G-force activation) escalates into direct tracking of the TARDIS in Episode 16, creating an ongoing, unresolved threat across episodes."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks' tracking of the taranium core (despite its replication) in Episode 15 leads directly to the Doctor’s preoccupation with the Daleks catching up in Episode 16, where their presence is felt even before the TARDIS's chaotic landing.
