Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Stegosaurus’s sudden disappearance due to temporal eddies (Episode 6) directly leads to the discovery of sabotage (severed chains, tampered equipment) in Episode 7, linking the time anomalies to internal betrayal."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Stegosaurus’s inexplicable disappearance in Episode 6 is the first concrete sign of temporal disruption caused by unseen antagonists. This is followed by clear evidence of sabotage in Episode 7 (e.g., tampered monitoring equipment), revealing the antagonists’ deliberate interference.
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.
