Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s moral dilemma in Atlantis (prioritizing Zaroff’s rescue) is directly mirrored in his later actions on the Moonbase where he defies Hobson’s containment orders to tend to Jamie’s worsening condition. This shows a continuity in his character’s prioritization of companions’ safety over bureaucratic or tactical obedience.
