Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The revelation of Kane’s violent past and his fixation with the Dragonfire treasure (Ep 13) directly motivates the Doctor’s plan in Ep 14 to mislead Kane using flawed charts. Kane’s ruthless pursuit of the treasure establishes both his character and the stakes, which the Doctor must counter.
