Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Mel’s quick escape from the lounge with Janet and Doland (beat_5712b29445408e02), following the hijacking commencement, sets in motion her coordination with the Doctor and Travers. This leads indirectly to Rudge being ambushed and killed by Vervoids (beat_6f317d7faa5ff5e6), as the crew is dispersed and less able to protect the hijackers."

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.
