Geordi and Leah collaborate under pressure

The auxiliary generator console displays real-time status updates, which Pavlik monitors before exiting. Geordi and Leah reference its readings implicitly as they discuss the generators’ modification, treating it as a diagnostic tool for their high-stakes experiment. Its data informs their calculations, though it remains a background element in their rapid-fire exchange. The console’s presence underscores the technical precision required for their plan.

Before: Displaying critical power readings, monitored by Pavlik.

After: Continues to monitor the generators’ status as the frequency modulation is attempted.
