Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Peri's act of shrinking the Master in Planet of Fire Part 4 sets up the security crisis on Androzani Minor (The Caves of Androzani Part 1) where weapons caches are discovered underground, implying a broader cycle of rebellion and suppression that requires ruthless weaponry - a theme first triggered by the Master's disruption."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The connection lies in the chain reaction starting with Peri's technological intervention against the Master, which catalyzes the volcanic unrest on Sarn and, by extension, creates a context where weapons smuggling and oppression become central conflicts on Androzani Minor.
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.
