Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Marriner’s insistence that Tegan must wear a spacesuit (to 'rejoin friends') echoes the Doctor’s eventual assumption that Tegan ‘wants to return home’ in The King’s Demons Part 2."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both figures (antagonist and mentor) misjudge Tegan’s desires—Marriner assumes she’ll comply, the Doctor assumes she wants to leave. Tegan’s rejection in both cases marks her shift from reluctant bystander to active participant in the Doctor’s world.
