Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Caven’s rhetoric in Episode 5—‘we'll both end up in a nirvan chamber’—hints at physical elimination. This culminates in Episode 6’s cold order to ‘shoot to kill’ if the Doctor and companions are found, escalating from moral threat to immediate execution.
