Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The futility of conventional weapons established in Episode 3 (cand_evt_scene_e1372e227cf64fb5_02) forces UNIT to adapt their strategy in Episode 4 (cand_evt_scene_12ce33bc888632b5_01), highlighting the escalating threat posed by the Autons and the Master.
