How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and Sarah restoring the expedition's power (Ep 5) enables the Doctor's later urgent warning about the planet's dangerous boundaries (Ep 6), as he uses his knowledge of the base's systems to diagnose the threat."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's technical expertise, demonstrated in Ep 5 by restoring power, is directly applied in Ep 6 when he explains the planetary boundary and the need to avoid tampering with the minerals.
