Data's Exposed Head Panel
Geordi exposes a panel on Data's head in Engineering, revealing circuitry that he adjusts to link with a temporal emitter clipped to Data's uniform. The panel's lights blink rapidly when Geordi triggers the emitter's dekyon field, signaling successful integration between Data's systems and the device. Beverly and Riker watch closely as the test proceeds amid red alert tension.
