Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In 'Datalore,' Data examines children's drawings depicting a crystal entity, despite his lack of direct memories. In 'Angel One,' he confirms the presence of Odin survivors in the face of Beata's denial. These moments show his willingness to trust his analysis over authority, a trait that grows across episodes.
