Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The sterile precision of Data's command on the bridge (E6) contrasts with his later mechanical efficiency in investigating a dead crew as a logical first responder (E7), reinforcing his role as the 'machine-like' problem-solver in crises."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
