Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The discovery of O'Hara's desiccated remains (a result of the energy creature's antimatter nature) directly leads to Sarah's desperate search for the Doctor later in Episode 7, where she finds him alive in the command center."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The horror of O'Hara's death and the Doctor's warnings about antimatter create immediate stakes that Sarah carries forward. Her distress upon hearing of the Doctor's apparent death is rooted in the events of Episode 6, driving her actions in Episode 7.
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.
