Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Odan, before leaving, presents Beverly with a rose symbolic of his love for her (beat_a276b54a2d88862c); later (Act 4), Beverly appears at Riker's door (now carrying Odan) claiming to check on him, holding the rose (beat_c56bee1c7f118810), demonstrating the powerful pull of the rose, a love token from Odan, influencing her actions and feelings."
