Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor’s disappearance via the TARDIS (Act 1) leaves Romana stranded inside the TARDIS (Act 2), creating a parallel separation: Romana is trapped in the ship, the Doctor is stranded outside it without his primary tool of exploration and escape."

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.
