Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This continuity traces Polly’s emotional arc from intellectual curiosity about the Dalek mystery to active moral stance protecting Quinn. Although frustrated by the Doctor’s policies, her continuity preserves her core trait — empathy — which later becomes a plot vector when Janley exploits it to isolate her.
