Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Soldeed’s merciless rejection by the Nimon (Episode 18) forces him into a more desperate and submissive posture, which is visibly reflected in his scrutiny of the TARDIS (a symbol of advanced alien power) in Episode 19. His initial defiance crumbles into anxious fascination with advanced technology."
