Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's announcement of Bert's death (Act 3) leads directly to her sharing the post-mortem results on Hughes, revealing a viral attack on every cell (Act 3). This builds the scientific case for the urgency of investigating the mine's environmental contamination."

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.
