Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor's role as a revealer of hidden truths is consistent: in Episode 14, it's about his own darker side; in Episode 13, it's about the Master's scheme. This underscores the Doctor's investigative and confrontational nature, as he forces the truth to light, whether about himself or his enemies.
