Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Beverly diagnoses Lwaxana with depleted psilosynine levels. Despite this diagnosis and the need to rest from telepathic communications, Lwaxana secretly uses her telepathy later in the arboretum, against Troi's instructions. This ultimately leads to her collapse."
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.
