Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The unresolved question of 'mysterious power drain' and 'unclassifiable radiation' from Episode 14 is resolved in Episode 15 when Data classifies the temporal rift as a time displacement without an event horizon. This connection spans episodes by tracing a technical mystery from false accusation to temporal causality.
