Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Worf’s loss of K'Ehleyr in 'Reunion' creates a shadow of grief and disorientation that resonates emotionally with Riker’s disorientation and shock upon discovering a transformed crew and a son he doesn’t remember in 'Future Imperfect'. Both men suffer identity crisis: Worf through loss and duty, Riker through forgotten time."
