Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi shares a story to encourage Beverly to accept her feelings for Odan (beat_a8ce708939dbecf7) leading to Beverly staying with Riker and sharing a kiss, as Beverly succumbs to her feelings as in she no longer has to fight it, and accepts the complicated situation (beat_a663ef80432e7cc4), which is only cemented because of Troi's encouragement."
