Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Codal's action in the source event—hauling the Doctor to safety—demonstrates his bravery and loyalty. In the target event, while Codal is not physically present in the corridor scene, Taron mentions him ('double back, Codal!'), indicating that his earlier bravery has cemented his place as a trusted ally. This continuity shows the Doctor's team growing and evolving, with past actions shaping future dynamics.
