Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Leela's physical act of escaping Gallifreyan authorities in Episode 22 (her resistance and flight) results in her displacement into unfamiliar terrain, where in Episode 23 she arrives at Nesbin's camp. This event chain links her defiance to her exposure to wilderness survival and Nesbin's scrutiny, showing how her rebellion forces her into confronting new threats and alliances.
