Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Worf's refusal to acknowledge Alexander as his son because of his dishonor directly drives his later decision to send Alexander to a Klingon school, believing it will cleanse the boy of his disgrace—which Alexander perceives as shame."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Worf's rigid honor-based reasoning established in Episode 407 (rejecting any claim to Alexander to protect him from disgrace) leads logically to his plan in Episode 510: separate from the boy and have Klingon tradition 'fix' him. Alexander's accusation 'You're ashamed of me' echoes exactly the fear Worf expressed earlier.
