Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The TARDIS’s movement into the Capitol under Spandrell and Goth’s supervision directly enables the Time Lords to monitor and ultimately apprehend the Doctor in the Panopticon, setting off the chain of accusations and trial. This illustrates how institutional action (relocation) has unintended but critical consequences.
