Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Geordi discovers hull degradation on the Cardassian ship, which leads Jellico to deduce the Cardassians intend to attack Minos Korva. This allows Jellico to confirm the Cardassian plot."

About Causal Connections
