How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Karl and De Flores's deception of the Cybermen to retrieve the bow (in the warehouse) directly leads to Lady Peinforte's intervention and the Doctor's trickery, resulting in the Nemesis launching to destroy the Cyberfleet—a chain of causality driven by human manipulation of the Cybermen's expectations."

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.
