Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The catastrophic failure and destruction of the Jenolan in 'Relics' leads to Geordi's involvement in sensor array modifications in 'Schisms', which inadvertently amplify tetryon emissions and worsen the spatial rupture threat."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Geordi's experience salvaging the Jenolan and combining engineering methods with Scott primes him to later modify sensor arrays in 'Schisms'. This connection underscores Geordi's technical growth but also the unintended consequences of his actions, a recurring theme in his character arc.
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
