Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

In Episode 8, the Doctor scolds the group for hiding in sewers and failing to act. In Episode 9, he actively assigns a high-risk sabotage mission, calling back to his earlier impatience with inaction and paralleling his stance toward Tyler's group.
