Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's chaotic assertion of personal authority over Borusa and Kelner in the first episode sets the stage for Leela's impulsive decision to remove the circlet in the second, which in turn forces the Doctor into a cataleptic state that destabilizes the entire system."
