Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Adric's theft of the key in Episode 10 allows him to access the control systems in Episode 11, positioning him in proximity to the detonator and Sanders' deadly plan. His presence at the center of these events is a direct result of his earlier actions."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Adric’s role in stealing the key in Episode 10 places him in the control room in Episode 11, where he becomes an unwilling witness to and participant in the dome’s annihilation plan. This escalates his character arc from playful trickster to someone entangled in life-or-death decisions.

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.
