Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s assignment of Peri’s protection to Herbert in 'Timelash Part 2' is echoed by Peri’s immediate visibility and vulnerability in Episode 12. Peri is again an explicit target, reinforcing the Doctor’s protective role and Peri’s perpetual peril as his companion."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection sustains Peri’s role as the Doctor’s vulnerable but indispensable companion. Her continued exposure to danger, despite (or because of) the Doctor’s warnings, defines her trajectory as one of increasing peril and responsibility.
