Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Guinan's assertion that 'This is not the way it's supposed to be' in Episode 15 directly precedes Data's secret creation of Lal in Episode 16. The crew's growing unease about reality distortion in Episode 15 flows into their confrontation with artificial life in Episode 16."
