Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This parallel emphasizes a recurring theme: survival under occupation isn’t just threatened by Daleks, but by the moral compromises and deceptions of other humans. Barbara’s awareness of this in Episode 7 foreshadows the deeper betrayal in Episode 8, deepening her distrust and hardening her pragmatism.
