Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's psychological confrontation of Kamelion-Master in Episode 17 is mirrored by his later confrontation of Timanov's religious dogma in Episode 18, where he dismantles Malkon's false belief in Logar's healing powers."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's role as a rational force challenging false constructs (whether robotic identity or religious dogma) ties these two moments together. Both serve as cathartic breaks in Timanov's dogmatic hold over the Sarns.
