Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The discovery of the unsecured cylinder in Ep13 (and Calder's investigation of it) parallels the warehouse ambush in Ep14, where Calder is again present and questioning the presence of Davros' Daleks. The earlier investigation of Dalek-related activity (the cylinder) directly leads to the later violent confrontation."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Calder's involvement in the initial suspicious activity (the unsecured cylinder linked to Daleks) sets up his presence and role in the larger conflict in Ep14. His mechanical behavior in Ep13 ('performing the agreed-upon task') evolves into active engagement in Ep14.
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.
