Remarkable scenes

  • Torres and Tom arguing in the teaser.
  • Torres asking hostilely asking Harry if she's in fact hostile. Irony.
  • The doctor: "Welcome to sickbay. Take a number."
  • Chakotay sabotaging the ship.
  • The doctor, regarding Torres reconfiguring him: "Then I can begin my new career as a tricorder."
  • Torres disabling the doctor's speech during her and Tom's argument.
  • Torres: "Klingons have much less tolerance for the cold than humans do." Tom: "I thought that was the Cardassians?" Torres: "They just complain about it more."
  • Janeway taking over the translocator.

Review

The extraordinary is becoming routine. This episode is totally boring. Only the basic premise is actually interesting; taking over a starship with a long range transporter, making it look like an innocent anomaly. Speaking of this transporter, one would think that a transporter with 10 light years range would be something Janeway might want to appropriate for her troubles. Oh well. A decent premise with an annoying execution. An extra point for some good scenes with the doctor as well as Torres and Tom.
