Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Dodo's insistence that she saw a primitive savage (Episode 38) is echoed when she encounters a weakened savage and is threatened by Chal in Episode 39. The primitive figures Dodo initially feared are now tangible and central to her experience."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This callback reinforces the theme of deceptive appearances. Dodo's earlier warnings about primitive threats are validated, contrasting with the Doctor's initial optimism about a peaceful future.
