Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Barbara's strategic use of alien tech (Sensorite mind transmitter) in Episode 36 foreshadows her later reliance on her own resourcefulness in Episode 37, where she must navigate the Doctor's navigational errors and the group's peril in revolutionary France."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Barbara's ability to think strategically under pressure (using the mind transmitter to guide the Doctor) shows her growth as a problem-solver. In Episode 37, she again takes charge when the Doctor's flaws put them in danger, reinforcing her role as the group's stabilizer.
