How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The theme of exploitation and disregard for life (Chessene claiming Arana’s mind after Shockeye kills her in cand_evt_scene_4f4327e5a1ae9b54_3) parallels the later theme of exploitation of the Second Doctor’s symbiotic nuclei in Episode 8 (cand_evt_scene_d5d2db5620805b17_1)."

The longer arc this connection carries
