Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Merdeen's decision to alert Drathro to the Doctor's presence (via the communication box) reflects his complex loyalty—fearful of Drathro's power but ultimately aiding the mission. His moral struggle echoes in the later scene where Peri, Balazar, and Merdeen debate the ethical implications of their actions, reinforcing the theme of moral compromise under tyranny."
