Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Steven's failed escape attempt (brute force, reality of physical struggle) echoes in the TARDIS where, though physically inhibited by wounds, his emotional agitation remains: he calls frantically for Vicki, revealing the same desperation in a different form."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Though Steven can't act physically in Episode 9 due to injury, his emotional outbursts and panic over Vicki's safety ('The Trojans will kill her') mirror his earlier physical desperation. This shows Steven's consistent fear of loss and failure across episodes, framed by his bodily state.
