The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s direct revelation about Monarch’s plan to exploit Earth’s minerals (beat_85e7fd4079560048) leads to his later explanation of the poison’s dual nature—both a weapon and a metaphor for Monarch’s exploitation—when he educates Nyssa in the final confrontation (beat_4e0774c71862ca1b)."
About Causal Connections
