How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Susan secretly defying the Doctor in Episode 22 to follow him forward through time (defying his plan) is echoed by the Doctor's own defiance of temple law in Episode 28 to protect Ian and Barbara."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This forms a thematic symmetry: both Susan and the Doctor prioritize personal loyalty or intervention over established rules (the Doctor's plan vs. temple law). It reflects a collapse of hierarchical control within the TARDIS group and society at large.
