Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Sutekh's physical manifestation as a villain in Episode 9 directly drives the Doctor's desperate actions in Episode 10, including his self-sacrificing attempt to jam the mental control. The causality is clear: one event directly enables the next.
