The only problem with this Dual Episode is that the teaser should have ENDED right after he says this.
The House of Mokai will Never Yield! I am No One's Prey!
Are you kidding I LOVED this! At first I didn't know this was Janeway. She's kicking some Klingon Arses, when suddenly this Butt-Headed Hirogen in Klingon Armor shows up. What the Frell? And then he shoves one of those nasty Klingon Knives into her guts.
Series should have ended right there.
But, fortunately the Alpha Hirogen decides to re-create the Invasion of Normandy during WW-II, Pre-Invasion including the Real Maquis of France and Nazis. Janeway is their Leader, Tuvok is her second in command, and of course, Seven of Sixty-Nine is their Nightclub-Singer-Slash- Demolition Expert. What a voice, she was great.
This was the first time in Voyager where we are shown that The Holodeck can affect Physical Parameter Changes on the people using it - This is explored later when Seven creates Quarters for herself and has dates with a Holo-Chakotay. And also an excuse to film Roxann Dawson while being Very Prego.
The Hirogen have taken over Voyager and have made it into a gargantuan Holodeck, spreading emitters over many decks and making one huge room. They have enlisted a bedraggled Harry Kim to maintain this for them, but the emitters suck too much power from Voyager's Main Systems, it's destroying the ship. The Hirogen, while advanced, are mainly interested only in hunting cunning PREY, although they can do the work themselves, they'd rather Shoot, Stab, and Hunt Voyager Crew Members and shunt them back to Sickbay where the Doctor has an assembly-line triage set up to fix 'em as they come rolling in with horrific wounds.
The Alpha Hirogen in this, when it comes down to what is important is acting to preserve his race, to make a better future for the Hirogen. But his Beta is more like the Nazi Character played by the great J. Paul Boehmer. In fact the Alpha tries to communicate ideas about Honor to Boehmer's Character, but he's a Holodeck Construct and acts only as he is programmed.
The Hirogen have also made a way to make Voyager's Crew actually believe they are really acting out this fantasy war, but the Doctor has a way to make them remember who they are. His first target is Seven of Sixty- Nine, he jiggles her Borg Implants to make her remember who she is, blocking the Hirogen Signal. Between Seven working inside the Holodeck and The Doctor and Harry working outside of it, they can give Janeway back her memories.
But Seven's out-of-character Behaviour inside the 'Deck causes Janeway to become Suspicious, she decides to Kill Seven (Mademoiselle De Neuf) as a Nazi Spy.
Meanwhile in American Tents, Chakotay is a Captain and Paris his Lieutenant: Perfect Roles for them in this, it would have been fun had they chosen to play this program with the Holodeck Safeties ON.
And Neelix has been given a Bumpy Klingon Forehead, he actually falls right into Klingon Character- It's not far of a stretch for him.
Will Voyager's Crew survive this Hirogen RPG? The Second part is as good as the first! And what transpires here will affect the future of Voyager as what Janeway has to do to survive will eventually bite her on the rear.
