Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Both scenes revolve around the extraction of life force, but where the Doctor condemns the city's exploitation of the 'savages' in Episode 39, Jano, in Episode 40, attempts to exploit the Doctor directly. This underscores the corrupting influence of power and the cyclical nature of exploitation.
