Forward saucer associative

In a line trimmed from the of the fourth season episode , the forward saucer associative was a field pattern associated with warp modulation and was of a lower energy level than the aft nacelle associative. When Geordi La Forge was traveling in the Type 15 shuttlepod Onizuka to Risa and wanted to pass the time, he played a trivia game with the computer. Listing all field patterns associated with warp modulation in order of decreasing energy was one of the questions. 
In the filmed version of the episode, the answer was cut short by the appearance of a Romulan Warbird after his first response, rather than his second.
