Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' initial vulnerability due to the energy blackout (established in Episode 12) directly leads to their desperate coercion of human laborers to breach the sentient city (Episode 13). Their inability to rely on weapons forces them to assert control through manipulation."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection establishes the escalation of the Daleks' desperation from Episode 12 (powerless) to Episode 13 (forcing labor to regain control), carrying forward the theme of their strategic pivot when brute force fails.
About Causal Connections
