Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Dodo’s anxiety over Steven’s infection (E27) reverberates in E28, when Steven and Dodo are both threatened—Steven by Monoid violence, Dodo by Monoid control—reframing their roles from concerned companions to endangered prisoners."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
E27’s intimacy (Dodo tending to Steven) is inverted in E28: both are now helpless, their roles reversed from carer to cared-for. This emotional echo reinforces the Doctor’s persistent inability to fully protect his companions.
