Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Worf’s primal roar of grief and assumption of responsibility for Alexander in 'Reunion' mirrors Riker’s eventual acceptance of his role as a father despite memory loss in 'Future Imperfect'. Both men react to loss of control over their identities with a reassertion of responsibility for a child, drawn together by Beverly’s presence."
