Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Vorg's failed appeal of the visa rejection (beat_bbad2711843e7fd4) drives the Doctor and Jo's decision to retrieve a tool from the TARDIS to investigate the plate (beat_e0ebbd354fd778d9), as the Doctor's own experience with bureaucratic rejection motivates his determination to bypass obstacles."
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.
