How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Valeyard's plan to eliminate the Doctor (beat_08ec3bb6beb460df) leads directly to his unleashing of asphyxiating nerve gas to force the Doctor and Glitz to flee (beat_3d95d4a274feb68c)."

About Causal Connections
