Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Peri's insistence on helping the Doctor (despite being forced to leave him) creates a psychological weight on Glitz, influencing his tense interactions with Dibber in Episode 4. His exhaustion may stem from carrying guilt or managing companions who reject his selfishness.
