Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Zoe's ability to rationalize mythical threats (Medusa) in Episode 9 directly parallels her ability to identify Jamie and Zoe as scripted constructions in Episode 10. Both rely on analytical recognition of narrative logic rather than physical threat assessment."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor dismisses threats through logic in Episode 9, whereas Zoe internalizes this logic and applies it to identify her companions' fictionalized state in Episode 10. This underscores her trajectory as a character who moves from fear-based rationalization to proactive identification of narrative manipulation.
