Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s command in Part 3 (when dying but clinging to agency) is echoed by his faint instruction in Part 4, framing Sarah’s actions as a direct extension of his will. This underscores his role as a mentor driving her agency despite his physical decline.
