Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both events involve the Doctor’s violent instincts and his physical breaking point—first in Jek’s confrontation, then in his attack on Peri. The crossover illustrates how extreme situations breed extreme reactions in the Doctor, even across regenerative boundaries.
