Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Spandrell’s early suspicion and urgency about the renegade Time Lord’s capabilities set the stage for the immediate accusations and coercive measures against the Doctor once the President is assassinated. This chain of events demonstrates the cumulative power of Spandrell’s initial framing, which Goth then exploits to assert control.
