How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The betrayal in Episode 10 (The Mind Robber) leaves the Doctor deeply shaken and isolated, which carries over into Episode 11 (The Invasion Part 1). His desperate attempt to re-establish trust with Jamie and Zoe is central to his actions in the first act of the next episode.
