The narrative assertion
"Davros's survival and reunion with the Daleks, achieved through the Doctor's coercion and the Daleks' loyalty, directly escalates the threat level. Davros's subsequent declaration of his intent to perfect the Daleks and ensure their 'invincible rule' marks a significant escalation in the Daleks' power and the stakes of the conflict."
