Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events hinge on the Doctor’s belief in systemic proof (trajectories, evidence), which fails against the Master’s greater deception. Hildred’s role as a witness in both—first to the Doctor’s innocence, then to his paralysis—creates a tragic echo: the Doctor’s victory in Episode 10 is undone by deeper forces in Episode 12.
