The narrative assertion
"Duggan discovers Bernalium rods are unusable leading Chang to state that Laleham and Vallance delivered the Bernalium from the rocket. The Doctor then realizes that the cybermen used the Bernalium to come aboard and were likely aided by hypnotized crew members Laleham and Vallance."
About Causal Connections
