Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Riker gains the trust of Lathal Bine and impresses Kalin Trose in the Observation Lounge. He subtly leverages this knowledge to gain tentative acceptance (beat_ea6d3e3ad0ee13c5), but Riker collapses in pain immediately after, and pleads for Beverly's help, revealing the severity of his condition, in the same space (beat_58d9336a5f1b790e)."
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.
