Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate

Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Both scenes center on memory wafers as miraculous solutions, first for Romana's return, later for K9's resurrection. The pattern of clinging to Romana's expertise persists despite mounting evidence of mechanical failure.
