Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The revelation that the Doctor is imprisoned and slated for experimentation directly escalates the stakes for Jo, who was previously isolated and infected. Her resolve to find a way to help him shifts her from survival mode to active resistance, mirroring the Doctor and Codal's rising plan to escape. This cross-character momentum foreshadows future team synchronization."
