Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The loss of the Zeus 4 crew and the uncontrollable capsule foreshadow the later threats in Episode 7, where Cutler's son is also at risk, and the Cybermen's invasion is imminent. The stakes escalate from technical failure to existential threats.
