Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The survival imperative established in Episode 14 (being cornered by Daleks and Visians) directly causes the escalation in Episode 15, where the Doctor's resourcefulness is tested further. This shows a direct cause-and-effect relationship between the two episodes.
