The narrative assertion
"The firefight with the giant Wirrn larva (beat_8b6562bcda6d99ad) prompts the Doctor to realise electricity is the Wirrn’s weakness, having deduced half a million volts are required from his earlier experiment, and thus he proposes electrifying the entire Ark (beat_ad8b89bc3132df9b)."
