Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Stewart's death and surrender (Episode 12) leaves the humans leaderless and disorganized, enabling the Daleks' labyrinthine control tactics (e.g., splitting the group and co-opting Jill in Episode 13). The power vacuum directly facilitates the Daleks' strategy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The absence of moral leadership (Stewart) and the presence of a self-serving leader (Galloway) creates the conditions for the Daleks' increased control in Episode 13.
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.
