Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Filer's attack on the ganglion in Part 2 destabilizes Axos' systems, which creates a vulnerability exploited by the Doctor in Part 3. This direct chain of causation links Axos' physical vulnerability to the revelation of its existential threat to Earth.
