How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's knowledge of Vivien's true identity from Episode 11 directly leads to his strategic use of legal procedure in Episode 12 to force her to reveal her past crimes. This causal chain establishes continuity in the Doctor's character and his relentless pursuit of truth.
