Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The catastrophic failure of the Marshal's machine (explosion) parallels the malfunction klaxon in storage area four that nearly traps the Doctor and Jo—but in Ky's case, destruction brings justice, while in theirs, it nearly brings capture. Both are technical failures with existential stakes."
