Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's hidden awareness of Dodo's cold in Episode 26 ('I couldn't send her home even if I wanted to') parallels his later acknowledgment of its severity in Episode 27 ('You may be feeling better but you're far from cured'). Both scenes use Dodo's illness as a narrative fulcrum for tension."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The recurring motif of Dodo's cold—once a joke about space travel, now a existential threat—ties the episodes thematically around mistaken assumptions about danger and responsibility.
