Why These Connect

"The Master's broadcast of Jo's peril in Episode 12 (Master broadcasts Jo’s peril to Doctor) contributes to the Doctor's urgency and strategic decisions, which indirectly lead to the Doctor's confrontation with the Draconian authorities in Episode 13 (Master loses control of his plan)."
