Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi probes Geordi's memories, which causes Troi to ask Geordi to set aside the Risa memories and recall the shuttle trip, testing specifically for the Romulan ship. The sequence provides a causal relationship: probing turns into deeper probing with specific prompts."
