Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Drathro's naming of the Doctor as heir in Episode 3 parallels his brutal suppression of Katryca and Broken Tooth's rebellion in Episode 4. Both moments reflect Drathro's utilitarian approach to power: replacing presumed failures (his assistants) or suppressing challengers (the rebels)."
