Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The discovery of the wardrobe of clothes (cand_evt_scene_d2017258ca703fd7_2) in Episode 4 is causally linked to the Doctor and Leela’s urgency in Episode 5 (cand_evt_scene_c89e34a72a15379a_01) to find Weng-Chiang’s fortress, as the victims’ clothing substantiates the need for swift action."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The evidence of Weng-Chiang’s crimes (the clothes) directly motivates the Doctor to pursue Chang in the opium den in Episode 5. This causal chain links forensic discovery to narrative urgency.
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.
