Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's proposal of a two-pronged attack through the swamps (Episode 9) logically precedes his actual sabotage mission in the Dalek city (Episode 10), which itself relies on exploiting discovered weaknesses detailed in the plan."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's strategic proposal in Episode 9 sets the stage for the specific infiltration and sabotage tactics used in Episode 10. This connection shows how planning in Episode 9 directly leads to action in Episode 10, linking Alydon and the Thals' strategic shift with the Doctor's technical sabotage.
