Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The climax of Episode 30 shows the Doctor’s failed experiment and Zoe’s frustration with the Doctor’s impulsiveness. In Episode 31, the stakes escalate as the group must trust an outsider (Milo) and rely on Zoe’s mathematical skills to navigate the crisis, mirroring the earlier failure but applying its lessons.
