How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Doctor explaining what he saw in the impeller shaft and confirming Van Lutyens' death (beat_afc39796c1342d5e), as well as Harris imploring Jones to believe him, leads to Jones finally agreeing to listen to the Doctor (beat_e686cc356cfee3f7)."

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.
