Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Chen’s humiliation and retaliation in the Dalek Control Centre (Episode 14) directly leads to the Daleks intensifying pressure on Chen and forcing him to escalate his own plans, as seen in Episode 15 when the Black Dalek exposes the pursuit ship theft."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Episode 14 ends with Chen publicly humiliated and forced to retaliate against the Black Dalek, which sets up his defiant stance in Episode 15. His need to prove his loyalty and worth to the Daleks drives his actions in both episodes.
