Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jo and Latep's willingness to act as bait in Episode 19 (to draw Dalek patrols) directly enables their high-stakes sabotage mission in the cooling chamber in Episode 20. The shared willingness to sacrifice personal safety bridges the episodes' events."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The group dynamic of voluntary exposure to danger established in Episode 19 (e.g., 'Latep and Jo make the sacrifice') is the precursor to their mutual commitment during the bomb detonation in Episode 20. This mutual trust under fire is a key continuity in Jo's character arc.
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.
