Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The rebels' coordinated escape in E2 (cand_evt_scene_939d7a69980688ee_2) creates the conditions for their abandoning the Doctor in E3 (cand_evt_scene_2cc439e1e7544440_3). This causal link underscores the rebels' self-serving nature, as their survivalist actions in E2 lead directly to their callous betrayal of the Doctor in E3.

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.
