Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The destruction of the Great Intelligence and its control systems in Episode 10's climax (especially the control sphere in the pyramid) leads directly to Travers' obsession-driven attempt to reactivate a Yeti control unit in Episode 23."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Travers' actions in Episode 23 represent a dangerous obsession carried over from Episode 10, where he was the only one fixated on the Yeti's existence. The defeat of the Intelligence creates a power vacuum that Travers tries to exploit by reactivating the Yeti through the recovered control sphere.
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.
