Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's concern for K9 in the TARDIS (laryngitis) establishes his protective, nurturing role as a companion and his technological/scientific curiosity, which carries into his later actions on Skaro where he investigates the phason drill and the corpse, demonstrating his pattern of addressing immediate problems with rational inquiry."
