Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Reeves' clinical dismissal of supernatural explanations in Episode 21 (The Daemons Part 1) sets up his initial medical assessment of the Doctor's 'death' in Episode 22 (The Daemons Part 2), where he similarly rejects supernatural causes despite clear anomalous evidence."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection highlights Reeves' consistent character trajectory as a man of science who prioritizes clinical explanations over supernatural hypotheses. His earlier dismissal of Hawthorne's warnings foreshadows his initial rejection of the Doctor's alien physiology (e.g., the dual heartbeat), creating a cohesive portrayal of his professional detachment across episodes.

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.
