How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's survival of Tandrell and Humker's demand for execution in Episode 2 (cand_evt_scene_9c1bad967bcc68fa_1) leads directly to Drathro's discovery of the Doctor's Gallifreyan origins in Episode 3 (cand_evt_scene_c9897998e15d9b0e_1), as Drathro analyzes the uprising and traces it to the Doctor's interference."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection shows how the Doctor's previous survival enables his continued involvement in the plot. Drathro's discovery of the Doctor's true identity creates the central conflict of Episode 3 and sets up the climax where Drathro will attempt to pass on his legacy.
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.
