Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's public accusation of Lesterson for tampering with the Dalek capsule and hiding a Dalek (Ep 10) directly leads to Lesterson's attempt to legitimize his actions by seeking approval from Governor Hensell (Ep 11). This escalates the confrontation between the Doctor and the colonial authorities."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Lesterson's defiance in Episode 10 (hiding the Dalek and denying the Doctor's accusations) sets up his aggressive pursuit of permission to continue experiments in Episode 11. This creates a causal chain where the Doctor's warnings and accusations directly fuel Lesterson's escalated actions, intensifying the conflict.
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
