Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Robson’s dismissal of technical warnings (Ep 30) directly enables Harris’s assumption of command (Ep 31) after Robson’s authority collapses under pressure."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Robson’s inability to act on technical advice in Ep 30 (e.g., Van Lutyens’ warnings about feed drops and impeller slowdowns) sets the stage for his removal from power in Ep 31. Harris’s rise is a direct response to Robson’s failures, creating a causal link between the two episodes.
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.
