Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Kellman’s revelation of the rocket trap and the Cybermen assault (Episode 19) directly causes the timing pressure and Sarah’s entrapment on the Beacon (Episode 20), triggering the Do’ threats calculations and strategies."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Without the events of Episode 19, the stakes for Sarah’s entrapment and the urgency of the Cybermen countdown in Episode 20 would not exist. This is a direct causal link.
