Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and Jo's realization of the Scope's manipulated reality in Episode 5 (cand_evt_scene_7c4ad2d8cee570f7_1) directly leads to the Scope's fault exposing their escape in Episode 6 (cand_evt_scene_9ab74b3528c3821c_1)."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Doctor's early observations about the ship's reality being manipulated set up the conditions where any faults in the Scope's systems would reveal the prisoners' presence. This causality links the two episodes in a cause-and-effect chain.
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.
