Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Zoe's revelation of resistance group locations during her interrogation (armed with knowledge from the mind-probing helmet) directly enables the Doctor to propose organizing the resistance in Part 5, which becomes a critical tactical resource he reveals Zoe possesses in Part 6."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection spans the episode boundary as a clear causal chain: Zoe's survival and interrogation in Part 5 produce strategic knowledge, which she retains (as revealed by her memory in Part 6) and which becomes the linchpin of the Doctor's resistance-organizing plan. It demonstrates Zoe's trajectory from a victim of interrogation to a holder of critical strategic intelligence, consolidating her role as an independent contributor to the group’s success.
