Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tegan's subjugation and mind-control bracelet application in Episode 15 directly leads to the android's directive to hijack the TARDIS in Episode 16, as the Terileptils use controlled humans as extensions of their will."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection shows the escalation of the Terileptils' control strategy: from subduing individuals to deploying androids as tools for systemic domination (TARDIS hijacking), carrying forward the theme of alien manipulation from Part 3 to Part 4.
