Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Chorley extracts the TARDIS's location and escape potential from Victoria in Episode 25, which directly leads to the Doctor's urgency to reach Covent Garden before Chorley can abscond with the craft in Episode 26."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor’s dismissal of Evans’ offer to search for Chorley in Episode 26 (a762880ea4999d32_01) reflects the Doctor’s prioritization of stopping Chorley, a direct reaction to Chorley’s actions in Episode 25 where he learns the TARDIS’s location (cand_evt_scene_625b3e4feeab8d5c_02).
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.
