Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Polly’s fear that Jamie has been caught by the colony in Episode 29 is directly addressed as the Doctor reverses the gas flow in Episode 30 to buy Jamie time in hiding."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The tension from Episode 29—where Polly fears Jamie’s capture—pays off in Episode 30 as the Doctor’s sabotage is explicitly justified by needing 'to give him [Jamie] time,' confirming Jamie’s still precarious position and the immediate consequences of ignoring it.
