Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Second Doctor's confrontation with Dastari in Episode 7 over genetic experiments set the ethical decay in motion. When Dastari ignores his warnings and participates in the Second Doctor's capture in Episode 8, it completes the arc of Dastari’s fall from a once-respected colleague to an active collaborator in the Doctor’s suffering.
