The narrative assertion
"Grierson's report to Faraday about tracking Crayford's ship creates the context for the Doctor's later intervention in the SDC base. Faraday's initial tracking of the ship allows the Doctor to exploit this preparedness to warn Earth, even as the android threat infiltrates the base."
