Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's decision in Episode 14 to infiltrate Vaughn’s London facility foreshadows the later confrontation in the sewers (Episode 16), where the Cybermen’s presence is finally revealed. The infiltration in Episode 14 is a precursor to the larger battle in Episode 16."
