Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' launch of the time machine from Kembel (Episode 17) leads directly to their materialization in ancient Egypt (Episode 18). The homing beam tracking mechanism sets up their arrival in a new time and location."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The homing beam and temporal tracking used to locate the TARDIS in 1966 London (Episode 17) explains how the Daleks arrive in ancient Egypt (Episode 18). This maintains narrative continuity and causal logic across 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.
