Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s dare to the Megara to ask Vivien her real name (beat_a8fff5dd0ccad7da) foreshadows his later blunt accusation that she is Cessair of Diplos (beat_891e3529e4f86eed) and ultimately his use of memory cell access to confirm it (beat_54e682afe3bef7f6). Naming becomes the key to unmasking her identity and triggering justice."
