Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Romana's practical skepticism and leadership under pressure (established in Episode 15 when she questions the Doctor's priorities and navigates the projection) drives her urgent demand for K9 to find the Doctor in Episode 16. This creates a consistent characterization arc of Romana balancing logic and heroic action across episodes.
