How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Brigadier and Doctor's discussion about the phenomenon's implications leads directly to the Doctor and Jo returning to the laboratory to find Tyler missing and the X-ray plate crackling. The Doctor's deduction that it was a release of kinetic energy (not an explosion) hinges on Tyler's earlier data."

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.
