"The Monk's manipulation of Steven and Sara in Episode 19 plants seeds of doubt that foreshadow Chen's eventual inability to read the Daleks' true intentions in Episode 21."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Monk's insincere performance in Episode 19 models the theme of characters misjudging the Daleks' motives, a trait that Mavic Chen fully embodies in Episode 21. While the Monk's manipulation is personal, Chen's overconfidence is systemic, but both stem from underestimating the Daleks' ruthless pragmatism.
