Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's deduction in Part 5 that the Cybermen are manipulating the Wheel internally (not merely attacking from outside) escalates in Part 6 to a direct confrontation where the Cybermen are preparing to invade and poison all life support, forcing the Doctor to commit to direct laser combat."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This evolution in the Doctor's strategic understanding drives the physical escalation of the conflict. The shift from observation to direct action ('boost the laser to destroy the Cyberman ship') marks a turning point in the conflict arc.
