Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries Victoria's character trajectory forward as she moves from fear and disbelief to scientific verification of the threat. Her initial visceral response to the seaweed's unnatural movement evolves into a more analytical approach when testing it with Bunsen in the TARDIS lab.
