Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Second Doctor's discovery of the lost recorder integrated into the TARDIS's force field module (Beat beat_a0078f9964fd883a) parallels the eventual explanation that Omega's will was like 'tension in elastic' needing to snap back (Beat beat_2259965dc967fc9e), both revolving around the idea of stored tension needing release."
