Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The traitor’s report to Omega that the Doctor is to be terminated confirms both the villain’s awareness and the success of the trap set by Omega’s scheme. This confirmation sparks Omega’s confirmation of readiness (in the TARDIS scene), linking the internal treachery on Gallifrey to the external villain’s readiness to deploy Colin Frazer as a pawn."
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.
