Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Captain Briggs' initial dismissal of the Doctor's warnings due to financial priorities (cand_evt_scene_1b4c7770f9633ea1_1) directly results in the later necessity for Adric to disable the Cyber override system autonomously (cand_evt_scene_9cb2eeaf31b41a9f_0), as no adult command is trustworthy."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The failure of leadership in Episode 21 forces Adric into a position of leadership in Episode 22. His mathematical and technical autonomy becomes the only path to survival.
