The narrative assertion
"The Doctor identifying the time machine and confirming its role in causing the temporal anomalies (beat_783244ff359ef0a6) immediately leads to his decision to use it to deactivate it and to deduce that the assassins will target Styles again (beat_c2392a0f52b1b92f), setting the plan for the climax."
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.
