Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Romana’s initial challenge to the Doctor’s recklessness by invoking Adric’s welfare (Ep17) is directly echoed when Rorvik exploits Romana’s skills against her will (Ep18), trapping her."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The callback highlights Romana’s arc from criticizing the Doctor’s improvisation to experiencing the same disregard from others. Adric, as a silent witness to both events, internalizes this imbalance.
