The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's narrow escape from a Dalek with the aid of a Movellan underscores the tightening noose around him, as the Movellans then capture him instead. The Doctor's realization that the Movellans are robots (and thus a new antagonistic force) escalates the threat beyond the Daleks alone."
