Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor's negotiation with Urak and Ikona to exchange the microthermistor for Mel's freedom (beat_e2f7e7844784c188) directly sets up the Rani's preparation to use the Doctor's physiology (beat_79ed9b9517bff3d2). This shows the Rani's quick adaptation to regain control."
About Causal Connections
