Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Data stopping the crew with the palm beacon leads directly to Wesley revealing that he reconnected Data's positronic matrix, enabling Data to then to reveal his plan to use the optical bursts to break the crew's hypnotic control. They explain their reasons for why they did what they did and saved the ship."
