Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

The Doctor’s impulsive demonstration in the TARDIS (trying to manually steer to Mars) results in immediate loss of control, which carries forward as the chaotic landing on the Moon. This demonstrates a causal link between his recklessness and an escalated crisis across episodes.
