Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s insistence on reclaiming the perilous tome (by exposing its danger) directly catalyzes Skagra’s pursuit. Thus, the Part 1 conflict triggers Part 2’s climax: Romana’s discovery of Chronotis’s life-threatening injuries is the direct consequence of the Doctor’s earlier probing.
