Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The moment in Episode 36 where Barbara switches from passive reliance on Susan's telepathy to active tracking of the Doctor parallels her role in Episode 37, where she must move beyond the Doctor's guidance and take independent action to secure the group's safety."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events mark a turning point where Barbara stops relying on others (Susan's telepathy or the Doctor's judgment) and starts trusting her own instincts to find the Doctor. This evolution in her agency is a key throughline.
