Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Barbara's attempt to distract the Daleks (beat_4223c5622a1e8417) fails, leading to a Dalek reporting Ian's failure and the need for capsule repairs (beat_2dc005304b9f185b). This failure escalates the Daleks' preparations."
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.
