Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The progression from Mawdryn's physical discovery and his urgent demand for the TARDIS (Episode 10) to his collapse and ultimate plea for annihilation (Episode 11) shows a clear narrative escalation in his torment. This directly reflects his core character trajectory as a being unable to die or escape regeneration.
