Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The discovery that the Zeons have taken the Doctor and Astra (beat_2a0205111a9e0187) directly leads to the Shadow's interrogation of the Doctor (beat_afd6ee15ab935a83), as the Shadow seeks the Key to Time and now holds the Doctor captive."
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.
