Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Cassandra's recognition of the TARDIS as a Greek trap (Episode 7) foreshadows her repeated warnings about Greek deceptions (the wooden horse in Episode 9). The TARDIS event serves as Cassandra's first major vision being ignored, establishing a pattern of disregard that culminates in her warnings about the horse."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection forms the backbone of Cassandra's conflict arc: her initial warning in Episode 7 (TARDIS as trap) is dismissed, setting up her escalating warnings in Episode 9 (wooden horse). The thematic parallel is that both warnings are about Greek subterfuge, and the repeated dismissal demonstrates the escalating tension of Cassandra's ignored prophecies.

B raises the stakes established in A. The conflict intensifies, the pressure increases, the consequences grow more severe. The ratchet tightens.
