Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's liberation from the Sea Devils' underwater base in Ep 13 (cand_evt_scene_c04a17c610af6b5b_01) indirectly escalates the conflict by prompting Walker's aggressive strategy, which fails and infuriates the Sea Devils, setting the stage for Hart's counter-assault in Ep 14."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's challenge to Walker's military approach in Ep 13 (implied in the event description) directly fuels the naval counter-offensive in Ep 14, where Hart's assault reverses the Sea Devils' control. This creates a causal chain of institutional responses to the alien threat.
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.
