Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's manipulation of Zaroff through psychological gambits in Episode 19 ('if anything happens to them, you'll never know the secret I was going to tell you') continues into Episode 20, where he sabotages Zaroff's power supply and feigns admiration to deflect suspicion."
