Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The unresolved break-in and missing Demeter seeds in Episode 9 create the context for Lasky's later accusation. Her institutional authority and immediate suspicion of the Doctor's possession of the seeds stem from her deep familiarity with the seeds' critical importance.
