How these two moments in the story relate

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection directly links the external threat (violent jolt during escape from Skaro) to the internal crisis (TARDIS malfunction affecting crew). It establishes cause-and-effect across episodes, showing the immediate aftermath of the attack on the TARDIS and its crew's vulnerability.
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.
