Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"K9 is lured into a manipulated distress call, responding to a false distress signal that causes him to materialize in the Shadow's domain. This directly leads to his abduction by the Shadow's minions, removing a critical protector from the TARDIS and leaving the Doctor and Romana vulnerable."
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.
