Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Vicki’s agency in Episode 17 (calling for help, exploring the TARDIS) foreshadows her active involvement in Episode 18, where she listens to the Doctor’s negotiations and intercepts Menoptra transmissions. This continuity highlights her growth from fear to strategic participation.
