Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi attempts to explain the concept of Heaven to the Cairn, and Lwaxana, against Troi's instructions (and Beverly's medical advice - Act 1) telepathically assists, but appears drained afterward. This illustrates the consequences of Lwaxana not listening to medical advise."
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.
