Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Rasmussen's attempted manipulation of Beverly's professionalism and curiosity in 'A Matter of Time' catalyzes her later disciplined intervention in Alexander's injury assessment in 'New Ground'. Both involve testing her boundaries between personal/professional identity."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Beverly's rejection of Rasmussen's advances ('I'm beginning to feel a little... influenced') demonstrates her commitment to professional boundaries, which directly informs her medical analysis of Alexander's injuries. Her calm efficiency in 'New Ground' mirrors this earlier moment of resisting external influence.
