Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection traces the Doctor's persistent anxiety about TARDIS system failures. After catching sabotage in episode 13, he remains hyper-aware of any mechanical disturbance, demonstrating how the earlier breach of trust and system vulnerability has made him more alert and quicker to diagnose danger in the later episode.
