Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Benton’s Part 5 question to the Brigadier about Yates’ whereabouts (‘I wondered if you’d had any news about Captain Yates, sir’) foreshadows Yates’ momentous radio transmission in Part 6 revealing the Master’s missile location. Both moments underscore Benton’s emotional attachment to Yates and his reliance on Yates for critical updates."
