Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Astra's interest in the Key to Time, including questions about its nature and the missing piece, is immediately followed by the Doctor revealing its true nature, testing her reaction and confirming her hidden agenda. This escalates the urgency to remove her from the TARDIS to prevent her from seizing it."
