Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's exposure of the War Chief’s 'limited lifespan' and ambition to control time travel (Episode 43) escalates to the Time Lords' dematerialization of the War Lord (Episode 44), symbolizing the finality of temporal justice."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Time Lords' judgment of the War Lord as a temporal criminal fulfills the logical escalation of the War Chief's ambition—they are both 'end-stage' punishments, with the later event demonstrating the Time Lords' ultimate authority over temporal crimes.
