Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's warning about 'catastrophic choice' (Episode 18) mirrors Keeler's realization of the living pod's danger and Chase's reckless nitrogen injection (Episode 23). Both highlight a moral failure where scientific obsession disregards peril, foreshadowing the Krynoid's escalating threat.
