Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Beverly, after succumbing to her feelings and kissing Odan (in Riker's body), is present when Odan insists on being removed from Riker's body after the mediation, even if the new host hasn't arrived (beat_1b2d80597d4d5046). Beverly, stunned, reluctantly agrees, acknowledging the sacrifice."
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.
