Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Leela's earnest request to travel with the Doctor—her self-motivated declaration of affection and desire—directly triggers the Doctor's reluctant resistance and finally her forcible entry into the TARDIS. This is the culmination of Leela's arc as a warrior seeking a new identity and purpose beyond tribal conflict."

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.
