Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Yates warns Jo of the cavern’s lethal traps in Episode 24, setting up the immediate danger the protagonists face when entering the church cavern. This directly causes the acolyte's warning in Episode 25, as the approaching threat (DOCTOR/UNIT forces) mirrors the traps Yates described."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection establishes continuity in the escalating threats faced by the characters. The foreknowledge of danger in Episode 24 (Yates' warning) is validated and amplified in Episode 25 when the acolyte warns of 'they're coming,' reinforcing the peril and the urgency of the ritual disruption.
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.
