Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's arrival in the refinery control hall as a suspected saboteur directly continues his fractured relationship with authority figures (e.g., Lethbridge-Stewart), where his insights are dismissed as threats rather than warnings."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's role as both problem-solver and perceived antagonist persists across episodes. In both cases, his deductive reasoning (about Yetis/sabotage) is met with hostility from leaders prioritizing control over collaboration. This continuity reinforces the arc of the Doctor's struggle against institutional paranoia.
