How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

"Episode 12 highlights a human's misguided attempt to control the Daleks (Lesterson), while Episode 13 shows humans being controlled or eliminated by the Daleks (Quinn neutralizing Kebble), mirroring the theme of human subjugation by the Dalek regime."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both episodes contrast human agency with Dalek agency. Episode 12 shows humans trying to dominate the Daleks (e.g., 'They're conspiring together! Oh, why didn't I realise?'), while Episode 13 inverts this dynamic, with humans like Quinn acting on the Daleks' behalf to suppress other humans. This thematic shift underscores the Dalek's ultimate power.
