Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Sarah Jane's earlier visit to Kettlewell seeking answers about Think Tank's robotics (E1) sets up the Doctor and Brigadier's confrontation with Kettlewell about K-1 in E2. Kettlewell's tension during Sarah's questioning in E1 foreshadows his full confession in E2."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Sarah's investigative instinct leads her to Kettlewell in E1, which directly enables the Doctors's later decision to speak with him in E2. This shows how Sarah's actions in E1 drive the plot forward into E2.
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.
