Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The return of Colin as a manipulated pawn to Tegan and Stuart (Episode 3) foreshadows Colin's passive presence at the youth hostel in Episode 4, where his mention by the receptionist provides the Doctor with a critical clue."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Colin's manipulation and collapse in Episode 3 serve as a callback that directly informs the Doctor's discovery in Episode 4. The continuity of Colin's role as a clue bridges the two episodes.
About Callback Connections
