Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Nyssa's mental disorientation in Part 1 is the inciting incident for her vulnerability to the Kinda's telepathy. Her gradual recovery and reunification with the Doctor in Part 4 highlights her resilience and the resolution of her psychological strain, directly carrying forward the consequences of her earlier psychic trauma.
