Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s analysis of the poison as 'everlasting' and capable of seeping into every ecosystem parallels the dystopian London's 'everlasting' decay and collapse in Episode 4, where society and environment are permanently damaged and poisoned."
