Object
Data's Handgrip
A small, hand-sized grip listed among the intimate artifacts Data packs in his quarters. It rests on a desktop amid a holocube, medals, and an antique sonnet; Data handles it with the same measured, unemotional care he applies to his personal effects. The object reads as a tactile, portable prop rather than a clearly operational device.

Significance
Operates as one of the private possessions that convert Data's interior life into potential evidence in the legal and moral dispute that follows. Its quiet presence amplifies the scene's theme — the fate of personal artifacts if Data is disassembled — and underscores his claim to lived experience.
