Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Major Baker's infection (transferred by Doctor Meredith in Episode 5) escalates directly into the Wenley Hospital crisis in Episode 6, where a patient dies from the alien disease and the epidemic spreads to London."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This is a clear causal chain: Baker's transfer to Wenley Hospital by Doctor Meredith (Episode 5) leads to the hospital outbreak (Episode 6), which forces the quarantine and treatment efforts. The Doctor's urgent demand for quarantine in Episode 5 is immediately validated by the crisis unfolding in Episode 6.
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.
