Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's suspicion of Wrack's foul play (Act 2) directly leads to his decision to stay on the ship and confront her, which in turn leads to his capture by Mansell (Act 3), demonstrating the chain of events set in motion by his investigation."

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.
