Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Emperor's decision to entrust Jo with a dangerous peace mission (transporting the Ogron via Earth police ship) directly leads to her imprisonment aboard the Master's ship in Part 6, where she becomes a captive but active participant in thwarting the Master's plot."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This cross-episode causal link shows how Jo's initial diplomatic role (supporting the Doctor's evidence and proposals) escalates into a position where her agency is both constrained (captive) and amplified (she outmaneuvers the Master). It tracks her journey from earthbound liaison to adversary who fights back.
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.
