Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Valeyard's presentation of the Ravalox evidence in Episode 1 ('meddling on Ravalox') directly triggers his later accusation of the Doctor's 'deliberate interference' in the rebels' cause in Episode 2."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The Valeyard's focus on the Doctor's actions on Ravalox in Episode 1 sets up his argument in Episode 2 that the Doctor 'deliberately chose not to free himself' and interfered in the rebels' struggle. This causal link reinforces the Valeyard's vendetta-driven escalation of charges.

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.
