Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's initial aggressive threat against Mordred at the dig site (forcing him to comply with Morgaine's demands) establishes his confrontational posture toward Morgaine’s forces, which later escalates into a direct threat against Morgaine herself at the hotel. This shows the Doctor’s escalating tactics in response to Morgaine’s relentless aggression."
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.
