Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Romana's detection of the Cailleach's energy signature using the tracer in Episode 10 ('Tracer detects the Cailleach's signature') leads directly to the Doctor's successful rescue of her from hyperspace in Episode 11 ('Doctor finds Romana in captivity'). The tracer's validation of the Cailleach's presence becomes a tool for resolution."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The tracer reading in Episode 10 ('Tracer detects the Cailleach's signature') confirms the threat's existence, and its implied functionality underpins the Doctor's ability to locate Romana in Episode 11 ('Doctor finds Romana in captivity'). This creates a causal link between diagnosis and resolution, highlighting Romana's role in identifying threats and enabling their defeat.

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.
