The longer arc this connection carries

The Monk's TARDIS is sabotaged by the Doctor in Episode 19, nearly leading to his extermination. This escalates the Daleks' focus on the Doctor in Episode 21, as the Black Dalek orders his extermination, framing it as a direct consequence of the Doctor's interference.
