Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi’s evasion of 'goodbye' mirrors Riker’s habit of deflection — she’s afraid of the emotional openness she’s been encouraging. But when she admits she can’t read him, it’s the reversal: the professional reaches the edge of her own walls. Their embrace is mutual surrender."
