Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both episodes explore the theme of instinct as a subversive human quality. The Doctor frames instinct as a tactical advantage against Daleks, while Jamie identifies it in Victoria’s behavior—suggesting the Daleks’ and Maxtible’s use of coercion echoes the Doctor’s theory, but in reverse: instinct is being exploited by control.
