Causal strong strength

Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor's pain from being shot by Stor's rheo carbine in the Panopticon (Act 1) creates immediate urgency, driving his actions in the President's Office (Act 2) where he demands the Great Key from Borusa to prevent further escalation of the Sontaran threat."

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.
