Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s insistence on Jo’s presence despite UNIT operations (The Time Monster Part 1) leads to her direct involvement in monitoring Stuart Hyde’s deteriorating condition (The Time Monster Part 2), as she is the one who relays the crisis to the Doctor."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection highlights Jo’s continuity as the Doctor’s earthbound anchor within UNIT. Her exclusion from the Brigadier’s team in Episode 21 paradoxically ensures her inclusion in the crisis response in Episode 22, as she remains the constant communication channel between the Doctor and the field.
