Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The physical threat to Peri escalates from immediate danger in water to existential threat on a dying planet. Both moments require Turlough and the Doctor to respond urgently, showing how Peri’s peril drives the plot forward in escalating stakes across the two-part narrative.
