Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tegana's violent attempt to abduct Susan in Episode 19 (stable scene) directly leads to his later role as a traitor allied with Noghai in Episode 20 (backgammon scene), where he manipulates events to destroy the Doctor's companions."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Tegana's initial aggression and suspicion toward the Doctor's group establishes his antagonistic role, which escalates into direct betrayal (e.g., accusing Ian of theft, orchestrating imprisonment) in Episode 20. This progression reveals Tegana's evolving threat as a consistent antagonist across episodes.
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.
