How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"The Borg's personal interest in Picard, hailing him by name in Part I, foreshadows the crew's mission in Part II to extract Locutus from the Borg ship. The Borg's desire for Picard directly sets up the rescue attempt. For Worf, this mission becomes a personal vendetta—retrieving his captain from the collective."
