A holodeck character causes chaos on board Voyager, particularly for Kim and Tuvok.
This is an enjoyable episode with good character moments.
This is a character-driven story, mostly about Tuvok and a guest character. It has some particularly strong moments for Tuvok whose Vulcan ways are explored very well in how he handles a variety of situations. I like the exploration of loneliness and the associated connection to feelings of love. It feels like a plot that would not feel out of place in the original series or TNG.
Some aspects are quite predictable, especially how certain events portrayed eventually link together. The writers are also relatively mean to Harry Kim again with a Geordi La Forge-esque portrayal of his love life.
Tim Russ is the standout performer and carries the episode very well, supported nicely by Sandra Nelson and Garrett Wang.
For me it's a 7.5/10, but I round upwards.
