Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Lesterson's defiance of the Doctor's demands (Ep 10) results in his secret retrieval of the third Dalek, which the Doctor later discovers and confronts in the Governor's office (Ep 11), leading directly to the Dalek's tactical deception when left alone with Lesterson."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Lesterson's refusal to destroy the Dalek (as demanded by the Doctor in Episode 10) implicitly sets up his secret reactivation efforts, which culminate in the Doctor's confrontation in the Governor's office in Episode 11. The dormant Dalek's reactivation scene is a direct consequence of Lesterson's defiance.
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.
