Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Master's anticipation in Episode 8 ('Go on, go on. You're almost there.') sets up his later manipulation when he exploits the Doctor's desperation to save Jamie and Zoe by turning them into fictional characters in Episode 10.
