How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Daleks' readiness to exterminate all foes in the warehouse (beat_3ea1b165bcd841db) directly sets up the firefight, and the Doctor's arrival with explosives to take out the Daleks (beat_ef898facf5c3a225), leading to Lytton's attempt to shoot the Doctor in return."

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.
