Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
E23 establishes the Moonbase as a site of hidden, insidious danger (virus). E24 reveals the physical, external threat (Cybermen), both requiring the crew to confront crises they initially misdiagnose or ignore. This thematic parallel underscores the series' focus on hidden dangers in isolated settings.
