Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and Nyssa's arrival in Amsterdam (Episode 4) establishes their methodical search pattern for Tegan, which is mirrored in Episode 5 when the TARDIS materializes on Manussa—a planet tied to Tegan's subconscious fears (via her nightmare programming). The trauma of searching for Tegan in Episode 4 escalates into the navigational anomaly tied to her psychological state in Episode 5."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Nyssa's skill in navigation and the Doctor's reliance on cryptic clues (e.g., 'JHC' in Episode 4) set up the TARDIS's erratic behavior in Episode 5, where Tegan unconsciously programs coordinates to Manussa. This creates a causal chain where the search mission for Tegan becomes intertwined with her mind.
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.
