Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Delta's presence on the bus is the reason Gavrok's bounty hunter pursuit reaches the Welsh holiday camp. Without her desperate escape in Episode 9, the Bannermen would not know where to strike, linking her survival and identity revelation in Episode 10 to her initial act of fleeing aboard the disguised spacecraft.
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.
