Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s revelation that the TARDIS is being trapped and controlled (Inferno) directly leads to the planet’s unnatural forces affecting the TARDIS and its crew in The Web Planet, where the unseen force manifests as eerie hums and threats."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The TARDIS being forcibly dragged in Inferno sets up the Web Planet events where an unseen force (the Animus) imprisons the TARDIS and manipulates its environment. This causal link explains the escalated instability of the TARDIS.
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.
