Narrative Connection

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The earlier scenes where Victoria is tranced and the Doctor identifies the source of control prepare the audience for the countermeasure taught to her in the next episode. This builds continuity in the arc of Victoria’s character and the escalating supernatural conflict.
