Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The loss of the TARDIS in Episode 10 establishes a critical tension: Romana's absence and peril. This catalyzes the Doctor's shift from planetary investigation to urgent companionship protection in Episode 11, where he repeatedly calls out for her upon arrival.
