Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Rasmussen’s patronizing treatment of Data ('Model T of androids') echoes Helena’s framing of Alexander as ‘just a boy’ needing guidance—both dismissing autonomy of a younger being in favor of their own (or others’) authority."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Rasmussen dehumanizes Data functionally; Helena reduces Alexander morally. Worf, in both cases, is placed in a role of defending or judging authority. This callback reinforces how Worf reacts to perceived disrespect or failure—with correction, not compassion.
About Callback Connections
