Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's encounter with the growling Creature in the pit (Episode 10) parallels his later awareness of the inescapable danger inside the Creature's lair (Episode 11). Both moments force the Doctor to confront a life-threatening situation engineered by Adrasta's exploitation of fear and power."
