Why This Matters Across Episodes

The longer arc this connection carries

Lwaxana's telepathic invasion of Picard's privacy (Episode 19) and K'Ehleyr's public, familial confrontation of Worf (Episode 20) both represent external forces breaching personal boundaries. This underscores a recurring theme of unwanted intimacy, creating a thematic bridge between the two episodes.
