Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Brigadier learns that Jo Grant is being held hostage at Stangmoor prison (beat_ed984133a5b91689), motivating the Doctor to go there. This is a direct cause for him arriving at the prison gate in Bessie, where he's intercepted by Mailer (beat_459af478fd4073eb)."

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.
