Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' shift from extermination to capture for mind analysis in Episode 3 (e.g., 'The Controller interrupts the Dalek’s extermination directive') escalates the stakes in Episode 4, where Boaz's sacrifice is required to challenge this new threat."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Daleks' tactical refinement (e.g., wanting the Doctor 'alive') forces the rebels into increasingly desperate measures, culminating in Boaz's sacrifice. This escalation binds the two episodes' narratives together.
About Escalation Connections
