Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Monk’s smug, triumphant attitude in Episode 37 (‘At last!’) is echoed in Episode 38 when he mocks the Doctor (‘Doctor? It suits you’) during their confrontation. This continuity highlights his unshaken confidence in his plan and his disdain for the Doctor’s interference.
