Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Daleks' prior failure to eliminate humans in 'Flashpoint' (via extermination orders and Robomen control) directly drives their future obsession with tracking the TARDIS (seen in 'Flight Through Eternity'). The unresolved human/Dalek conflict in Episode 9 fuels the later temporal chase."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The unresolved conflict from Episode 9 (Daleks' failed extermination) creates the impetus for Episode 32's time-tracking plot. The Daleks' failed local genocide mission becomes a motivation for their temporal persistence.
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.
