Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's shock from testing the tannoy cable nearly kills him, which Broton and the Zygons interpret as the Doctor’s death—a misconception that allows the Doctor to exploit their guard to later revive the Duke and Lamont."

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.
