Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's decision to increase the TARDIS's power to receive the White Guardian's full message is paralleled by Tegan's later reception of a second, more specific message from the White Guardian—both acts of increased energy/output leading to urgent, fragmented knowledge that heightens danger."

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.
