Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Susan's fear of the unknown in the tunnels ('I can't go back') mirrors her later hesitation to trust the Doctor's authority when he dismisses her ability to mediate with the Sensorites. Both scenes showcase her reluctance to proceed into situations where she feels uncertain, and her growing frustration with being treated as incapable."
