Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's accusation of Mavic Chen as a traitor who has been secretly mining taranium for the Daleks is directly addressed in the conference room scene, where Zephon accuses Chen of negligence, sparking conflict. This suspicion drives the plot forward providing the Daleks a reason for suspicion."
