I couldn't agree with planktonrules any more than I do. The phase shift episodes are confusing and seem quite pointless to me.
The Vidiians force Voyager into a plasma field to escape (they can get lost in all the plasma, apparently). When they emerge on the other side all engines/power is getting drained and they are getting hit by proton bursts. The proton bursts are from the other Voyager although they don't know that yet. I won't go into more detail than that as it may give something away, but, let's just say the two Janeways meet up and a solution of sorts is arrived at.
The Vidiians show up and cut a hole in one of the Voyagers deck 5 to gain access. Not sure why the Voyager peeps didn't send about 20 security people with phasers to shoot them as they arrived (assuming they access tunnel was not more than a few feet wide). Then we see Voyager crew getting chased around and not bothering to shoot back. Ugh.
So the final solution is implemented and all is back to normal yet again!
