Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's escape from the Matrix (a crucible of mental combat) immediately leads to his sustained suspicion about the Master's feigned death. This reflects the Doctor's psychological continuity: his experience in the Matrix sharpens his intuition about deception and manipulation, driving his later investigations."
