Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The baryon sweep disrupts their fight (beat_4104a2ce0b9159f7), and Kelsey beams away with the trilithium, leaving Picard trapped by the baryon sweep. He urgently contacts Arkaria Base to deactivate the sweep (beat_e2d1047f4d143a46)."
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.
