Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The earlier event (Episode 13, Vaughn probing the Doctor’s circuits) establishes Vaughn's fixation on advanced technology, which directly pays off in Episode 14 when he weaponizes emotion through the Cerebraton machine. This links Vaughn's manipulative curiosity to his strategic betrayal of the Cybermen.
