Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor uses a forged object to manipulate truth in 'Sentence of Death', mirroring how Barbara manipulates Aztec belief systems by adopting the identity of Yetaxa. Both objects (micro-key, armband) are central to uncovering deception and asserting new identities, foreshadowing Barbara’s embrace of priestly deception.
