How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Vicki's arrival via the Daleks' time machine in Episode 34 directly leads to the Daleks' detection of the group's escape in Episode 35, as they follow her scent or presence."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Vicki's unconscious state in Episode 34 (cand_evt_scene_423554b12c58f23e_02) is a direct consequence of her smuggled arrival via the Daleks' time machine. This act provides the Daleks with a trail to follow, enabling their seismic detection in Episode 35 (cand_evt_scene_1b2c6b351fc77fea_01). This causal link drives the group's flight to the Mechanoid city.
