Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection establishes Sarah's continuous involvement in the crisis from the first episode's investigative phase into the second's deadly consequences. Her early role as the Doctor's pragmatic companion evolves into a survivor navigating threats beyond the Krynoid's plant-based dangers.
About Causal Connections
