Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The theme of Geordi uncovering hidden truths under pressure (power drains, reactor anomalies) foreshadows his role in Episode 15 diagnosing a coolant leak and imminent warp-core breach — again uncovering dangerous 'hidden' system flaws."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
