Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor reveals he programmed the King (beat_ce8f679c8901652e), which combines with his earlier explanation to Zadek about the King's android nature requiring repairs (beat_c9d35e28a573d67b). This dual information empowers Zadek to trust the Doctor's expertise and later seize Grendel, knowing the true extent of Grendel's deception."
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.
