Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's scientific curiosity about Axonite in Episode 11 transitions into a life-or-death struggle in Episode 12, as the Axons adapt their strategy to neutralize the Doctor. The Brigadier's use of 'mission objectives over personal safety' reflects the escalation of the stakes.
