Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Scarman's role as a human intermediary controlled by Sutekh parallels the androids' use of repurposed humans (the villagers and soldiers) in 'The Android Invasion'. Both cases feature seemingly normal humans acting as puppets for an alien intelligence."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The human-computer interface (Androids) mirrors the human-mental interface (Sutekh's control), reflecting a broader theme of infiltration and loss of autonomy. Sarah, having witnessed Sutekh's manipulation of Scarman, is primed to recognize the android villagers' unnatural behavior.
