Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's high-stakes plan to split the team in Episode 19 escalates into Jo leading a life-or-death search in the Dalek corridor in Episode 20. The team's physical dispersal in Episode 19 leads to a loss of cohesion in Episode 20 that Jo must overcome."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The episode's climax in Episode 19 (team splitting) creates narrative tension that persists into Episode 20 as Jo must regroup the shattered team while surviving Dalek assault. This escalation of stakes reflects Jo's expanding role as crisis leader.
