Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Codal's ability to act decisively under pressure, first by physically disabling a Dalek, then by taking charge in assessing the escape route (e.g., 'Codal voices urgent practical concerns, demanding clarity on their route'), demonstrates his maturation from a hesitant scientist to a capable tactical leader, consistent across episodes.
