Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Chen's assertion of Dalek-backed authority over the Galactic Council in Episode 20 mirrors his delusional expectation of being obeyed by the Daleks in Episode 21, highlighting his fatal misjudgment of the Daleks' loyalty."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The irony of Chen's belief that his alliance with the Daleks grants him authority over them in Episode 20 is sharply undercut by their betrayal in Episode 21. This callback emphasizes Chen's fatal flaw: his inability to perceive the Daleks' true motives.
