Object
Mr. Troi's Dog Leash
Mr. Troi grips this leash during the family picnic by the pond, tethering the growling dog that later reveals itself as a wolf. Deanna's father yanks it taut to hold the beast back, but the restraint snaps or slips free. The dog's escape draws Kestra into pursuit, her plunge into the water unnoticed amid the parents' distraction with baby Deanna. Lwaxana watches the leash fail, her face twisting in recalled horror as the memory fractures the arboretum's illusion.
