Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Liz’s realization that the wax figures are Autons (Spearhead from Space Part 4) foreshadows her later comment in Doctor and the Silurians Part 1: 'So was I' when the Doctor describes Spencer’s regression. Both moments involve Liz recognizing a surreal, inhuman pattern (plastic soldiers, prehistoric drawings) that defies rational explanation."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Liz’s shift from scientific skepticism (doubting the Doctor’s sonic screwdriver joke) to accepting the surreal underscores the Doctor’s influence in broadening her worldview. This foreshadows her growing trust in the Doctor’s interpretations, even when the evidence is bizarre.
