Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s warning in Episode 18 about the existential peril of human dependency on machines (posing a rogue automaton threat to the crew) directly informed his retreat from external aid in Episode 24 when he rebuffs Jago’s probing assistance, choosing solitude and strategy over collaboration."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This strengthens the Doctor’s arc as an outsider who prioritizes lone investigation, a stance that remains constant despite changes in setting and villain, driven by his trust in his own deductive methods over external allies.
