Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Both Data and Worf assist characters in navigating Holodeck programs by providing context and structure. Data helps Riker slip into the Dixon Hill role with mannerisms and explanations, while Worf escalates K'Ehleyr's program by instructing 'Level Two,' intensifying the activity."

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The connection underscores the consistency in how supporting characters (Data and Worf) interact with others in Holodeck programs. Data offers social tutoring to facilitate Riker's immersion, whereas Worf escalates K'Ehleyr's ritualized combat to a more intense interaction. Both scenes highlight how secondary characters mediate the protagonists' experiences in simulated environments.
