Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Jo's desperate plea to save the Doctor (Event 22-01) escalates into her witnessing his confrontation with Bok in the barrow chamber (Event 23-01). Her urgency in Episode 22 is directly tied to the Doctor's continued vulnerability and need for protection."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection carries Jo's emotional and narrative investment from her frantic rescue attempt of the Doctor in Episode 22 to her active role in the ensuing supernatural confrontation in Episode 23. Her actions in Episode 22 (digging the Doctor out) directly enable the Doctor's recovery and subsequent confrontation with Bok in Episode 23.
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.
