Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The confrontation in the Hydroponics Centre over a locked drawer (beat_98fc81d2a8727c21) leads directly to Doland’s revelation of his plan to exploit the Vervoids for economic power (beat_26ddbcafae9230b7). This confession exposes his secondary antagonism and motivates the Doctor’s immediate disarming action."
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.
