Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Romana's report of Rigg's Vraxoin-induced erratic behavior (E14) is directly connected to the later revelation of the Vraxoin smuggling plot led by Tryst and Dymond (E16), as it prompts the Doctor's investigation."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries the investigative thread from Episode 14, where Romana first suspects Vraxoin poisoning, to Episode 16, where the full conspiracy is exposed. It links Della’s actions to the larger smuggling plot.
About Causal Connections
