Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Maitland explains the Sensorites' mental influence (beat_db60402edcb5fa98), which immediately precedes the Sensorites stealing the TARDIS lock (beat_cccf86006e1a991a). This theft is a direct consequence of the alien threat and traps the travelers, escalating the 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.
