Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Turlough's character arc revolves around his defiance of authority and his struggle for autonomy. His escape in the transmat (Episode 9) sets a precedent for his later actions, where he is again trapped and forced to confront the consequences of his choices, now under the control of the Black Guardian.
