Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In Episode 5, the Daleks destroy Cory and Lowery's ship to eliminate evidence. In Episode 10, the Daleks actively hunt and kill Kurt Gantry to eliminate witnesses. The shift from passive destruction to active hunting reflects an escalation in Dalek ruthlessness.
