Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and Romana's confrontation with Zargo and Camilla in Episode 14 (exposing the rulers' fragile power and knowledge-based threats) directly leads to Aukon's leverage in Episode 15, where Adric's capture is used to coerce the Doctor. The earlier defiance sets up Aukon's ability to weaponize Adric."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries Camilla's trajectory of pragmatic control: her initial masking of panic behind ritualistic certainty in Episode 14 (e.g., deflecting Zargo's moral objections with cold pragmatism in cand_evt_scene_c66f8512862c9a3a_02) evolves into her complicity in Adric's sacrifice in Episode 15 (cand_evt_scene_28530fb3c9b6e1c5_1), where she gleefully anticipates the ritual's inclusions ('Camilla reveals the Doctors imminent capture and transformation as an integral part of the ritual').

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.
