Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Episode 13 forces Glitz into the Doctor’s orbit against his will as a witnessed pawn in a corruption trial. In Episode 14, the Master’s betrayal escalates this dynamic, using Glitz’s willingness to bargain as a weapon against him. This escalation pushes Glitz toward moral reckoning and highlights the cost of his mercenary deals.
