Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s poignant farewell to Ian—'Godspeed' and 'be valiant'—echoes in Vicki’s anxious plea to not be left behind in Episode 24: 'You wouldn’t go off and leave me, would you?' Both lines underscore a shared fear of abandonment among the companions."
