Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Sarah's infiltration of the commando raid in Episode 2 (cand_evt_scene_5aaa1149647a5c2b_1) directly positions her to develop the smoke bomb counter-offensive with the Doctor in Episode 3 (cand_evt_scene_1b036cee82e11a83_01)."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Sarah's growing familiarity with medieval warfare tactics and castle layouts from Episode 2 directly enables her tactical collaboration with the Doctor in Episode 3. Her earlier infiltration becomes crucial expertise when mounted as a coordinated defense.
