Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The subsonic hum experienced by Vicki and ignored by the Doctor escalates into the literal abduction of the TARDIS and the separation of Barbara from the group, signaling a shift from mere unease to direct physical jeopardy. This escalation forces the companions into prolonged isolation and survival narratives that define Episode 17.
