Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' decision to test the Doctor's intelligence (beat_a10f78e071c0b9f4) directly leads to his engineered escape (beat_f2875748a41636ac) being revealed as a trap, culminating in his recapture and sentencing to 'robotisation' (beat_79501b403f9bbbae). This creates a cause-and-effect chain."
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.
