Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s urgent instruction to return to the Tardis (Act 3, post-escape) is directly precipitated by Meglos’s failed attempt to stop the sabotage-driven countdown. The countdown’s execution creates the immediate need for escape, linking the Doctor’s survival instinct to action."
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.
