Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's avoidance of Gallifrey and Romana (Logopolis Part 1) mirrors Tegan's forced entry into the TARDIS (Logopolis Part 2) — both represent disrupted control and unintended consequence."

Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor's deflection in Part 1 ('Oh yes, yes. Are you really set on going to Gallifrey?') sets up the theme of avoidance leading to unexpected encounters, which plays out when Tegan involuntarily enters the TARDIS in Part 2.
