Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Bor's cosmic revelation about Terminus's engine being the universe's origin becomes the foundation for Nyssa's technical solution to free the Vanir. This connection demonstrates how intellectual understanding (the Doctor's analysis of Bor's revelation) transforms into practical liberation through character actions across episodes.
