Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The chaos caused by Odysseus claiming the TARDIS in Troy creates a narrative atmosphere of distrust and danger that persists into Episode 10, where Bret Vyon infiltrates the ship and Steven—already vulnerable—violently reacts due to blood poisoning."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The TARDIS as a contested space continues across episodes: first fought over by invaders, then infiltrated by a hostile stranger, amplifying Steven’s instability and the crew’s vulnerability.
