Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaEthan Phillips stated that a scene was shot where Neelix and Kes acknowledge they have broken up, saying, "...we did do a scene where we both acknowledge that we're not a couple anymore. We shot it in the science lab, which was a set we didn't use often. And Kes and I had a closure conversation where we said we want to be friends now ... it was quite a nice tag to the relationship. They never aired it... it was a very good scene. It was easily as six or seven-page scene where we track what happened to us and what we think might have caused the split, but that we want to stay friends."
- GoofsVoyager is able to track the asteroids as they move on a set path up to six hours away. At no time do they try to move to the asteroid's position and destroy it long before it would strike the planet. For some reason they keep waiting for the asteroid to reach the planet before trying to destroy it.
- Quotes
[last lines]
Lieutenant Tuvok: Your instincts were correct; however, one day your intuition will fail, and you will finally understand that logic is primary above all else. Instinct is simply another term for serendipity.
Neelix: And one day, Mr. Vulcan, I'll get you to trust your gut.
Lieutenant Tuvok: That is doubtful.
Neelix: We'll see.
Lieutenant Tuvok: Your attempts have yet to succeed.
Neelix: You always have to get in that last word, don't you?
Lieutenant Tuvok: I am simply responding to your erroneous statement.
Neelix: Something tells me you just hate to lose an argument.
Lieutenant Tuvok: Losing is irrelevant.
Neelix: See what I mean?
[Neelix exits]
Lieutenant Tuvok, Neelix: No... I do not.

I appreciated that the show finally addresses Tuvok's obvious hatred of Neelix. While I could certainly understand Tuvok's irritation with Neelix (who wouldn't be?!), Tuvok's often dismissive attitude shows that he's indeed a lot more emotional than he lets on to others. This makes for an interesting confrontation. Fortunately, in addition to this, the show has LOTS of innovative plot elements-- more than you'd usually expect on a Trek show--making it well worth seeing. My only complaint is near the end, Voyager is under attack and they beam Neelix and Tuvok aboard--but how can they do this with their shields up?! This violates what other episodes tell us about future warfare. On the other hand, only a moment later, I loved Neelix's comment that "Mr. Sklar returned to the surface". What that is so funny you'll have to see for yourself.
