In an effort to help the Kohl people, Torres and Kim equip two pods with Starfleet technology and submit themselves into stasis. With their mental and physical activities closely monitored, they enter the environment created by the computer attached to the Kohl pods. Once there, Torres and Kim find that the humanoid's dreadful fears about recovery and survival have caused their computer program to manifest a devious, omnipotent clown - the idealization of their fear - and a cast of other nightmarish characters. Then, the clown holds Torres and Kim hostage while making increasingly unreasonable demands of Janeway. TUVIX Episode:40 PCode:140 Stardate:?

The Doctor's bio-scanner shows that the Neelix and Tuvok's patterns have merged, causing the pair to become one entity - Tuvix - a humor-filled, logic defying fusion of the two crewmen. While Tuvix assimilates and starts to become a valued member of the team, Kes struggles with the fact Neelix may not be part of her life anymore. Meanwhile, The Doctor devises a method to restore Tuvok and Neelix, except for one variable - Tuvix doesn't want to die. When The Doctor, who is programmed to follow certain ethical guidelines, cannot perform the the separation, Janeway is left with a monumental decision. RESOLUTIONS Episode:41 PCode:141 Stardate:?

As Voyager moves out of her communication range, Captain Janeway leaves Tuvok with strict orders not to contact the Vidiians for help even though they may have more sophisticated medical technology to handle the crisis.

So with Teirna restricted to secured quarters, Voyager heads on a rescue mission through the Kazon-Nistrim territory where Kazon raiders viciously attack the ship. Before long, the fierce battle is over and the Voyager crew has lost - outwitted by their most bitter foe. Surrounded and defenseless, Captain Janeway must give up the ship to the Kazon. The crew must accept that they've been tricked by Culluh who relishes the help of Voyager. At his side is an alive and well Seska who taunts Chakotay with their son. Then, the Kazon abandon the 148 members Voyager crew on the surface of Hanon Four, a primitive, ferocious planet. Stripped of their technology, they must use the most basic skills to survive.

As Culluh tests the ship's power, Seska activates the Emergency Medical Holographic Program only to have the Doctor report startling facts about her newborn baby. The Doctor detects that Ensign Suder is stowed away on board and learns that Lieutenant Paris, with the help of a Talaxian convoy, is piloting a damaged shuttlecraft, desperately working to somehow save Voyager.

FLASHBACK Episode:44 PCode:145 Stardate:50126.4 Guest Stars: Grace Lee Whitney (Commander Janice Rand), Jeremy Roberts (Valtane), Boris Krutonog (Helmsman), Michael Ansara (Kang) and George Takei (Captain Hikaru Sulu) Written By: Brannon Braga Directed By: David Livingston Tuvok suddenly begins having strange, disorienting attacks which cause a disturbing childhood memory to resurface. As the trauma begins to degrade his neural system he knows he must take action or he will die. To access and conquer the debilitating memory fragment, he asks Captain Janeway to act as his guide and enter into a mind-meld with him. Amazingly, the mind-meld takes Tuvok and Janeway to the scene of the young Vulcan's first Starfleet duty - on the bridge of the U.S.S. Excelsior with Captain Hikaru Sulu in command. This episode commemorates the 30th anniversary of the hugely popular "Star Trek" franchise and marks the first time a cast member from the classic "Star Trek" series has appeared on "Star Trek: Voyager." The episode also contains references back to the feature film Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. While The Doctor and Kes monitor them, Janeway and Tuvok delve deep into the mind-meld. Tuvok attends to duties with his then fellow crew members including Commander Janice Rand, while Janeway is an unseen observer. She learns that Tuvok's first deep space assignment, as a junior science officer aboard the Excelsior, was a disagreeable tour of duty for the young Vulcan and sees how it eventually led to his departure from Starfleet over 50 years ago. Janeway also has a chance to see firsthand what her kindred officer, Captain Sulu, chose to do in the heat of battle with the Klingons, led by Commander Kang ("Deep Space Nine"). Tuvok clashes with Sulu over the Captain's orders to make the bold mission to the Klingon Homeworld to rescue Captain Kirk and Doctor McCoy (Star Trek VI) and Janeway gets to "ride shotgun" with a different breed of Starflet officer. Janeway and Tuvok continue with the mind-meld in hopes that it will yield just which repressed memory is causing such a physical reaction in Tuvok - until something goes wrong and without warning, Sulu and the Excelsior crew can see Janeway.

Directed By: David Livingston Thanks to the success of the doctor's previous mission ("Message in a Bottle"), Voyager has at last made contact with Starfleet Command by using a far-flung array of alien relay modules to communicate with Earth and let them know that they are, indeed, alive - -although still many light years away. Miraculously, the ship begins receiving messages, transmitted across the vast distances over the same relay system, from relieved family and friends back home. Voyager's crew is elated to finally hear from loved ones after so many years. However, for Captain Janeway and others, their joy is tempered by bittersweet news. Many messages are still being held at the module. Voyager proceeds to the alien craft to attempt retrieval of the remaining transmissions. Tuvok and Seven of Nine are ordered to board a shuttle and inspect the craft. Before they can, however, they are captured, beamed aboard an alien vessel and russed-up like animals as a rude introduction to the Hirogen, a hostile, alien race of hunters. Living for the thrill of the hunt, the Hirogens have targeted Voyager's crew as prey in their latest game. PREY Episode:84 Pcode: 184 Stardate: 51652.3 Guest Stars: Tiny Todd as Alpha-Hirogen and Clint Carmichael as the Hirogen Hunter. Teleplay By: Brannon Braga Directed By: Allan Eastma Voyager encounters a Hirogen ship, adrift, with a critically wounded Hirogen hunter on board. Janeway orders that the alien be beamed into Voyager's sickbay, despite Seven of Nine's warnings that the formidable Hirogen would regard the crew as no more than prey to be hunted and killed. Janeway disavows her concern and brings the Hirogen onboard. His presence brings even greater danger when the creature that he has been hunting across space -- species 8247, lethal even to the Borg -- boards Voyager.

THE KILLING GAME, Parts I & II Episode:86 &87 Pcode: 186 & 187 Stardate: not given & 51715.2 Guest Stars: Danny Goldring as the Alpha Hirogen; Mark Metcalf as the Hirogen Medic; Mark Deakins as the Hirogen SS Officer; J. Paul Boehmer as the Kapitan; Paul Eckstein as the young Hirogen and Peter Hendrixson as the Klingon. Teleplays By: Brannon Braga & Joe Menosky. Directed By: David Livingston & Victor Lobl The Voyager crew have become unwitting game to the Hirogen hunters who have invaded the ship and cast the crew members in a variety of elaborate, deadly Holodeck games. Having invaded Voyager and discovered the many uses of the Holodeck, Hirogen hunters have been playing a deadly game with Voyager crew members, putting them through various scenarios in which they are being hunted down as prey. One of the scenarios takes place in occupied France, with the Hirogen as Nazi SS Officers chasing down Captain Janeway, Seven of Nine, Tuvok and Torres as members of the French Resistance. Implanted with subdermal transmitters, the crewmembers have no knowledge that they have identities beyond the characters they are playing. Only the Doctor, forced to mend the steady stream of wounded crewmembers to sick bay, is conscious of the invaders. He soon figures out a way to disengage Janeway and Seven of Nine, who then must begin to figure out how to defeat the Hirogen at their own game. VIS-A-VIS Episode:88 Pcode: 188 Stardate: 51762.4 Guest Stars: Written By: Directed By: Voyager comes across an alien who's having problems with his ship. Our heroes give him a hand, the good guys that they are. Meanwhile, in the holodeck, Paris has been playing with a holo-garage program, tinkering on a black-with-white-stripe 1969 Camaro (sweet ride). The alien turns out to be a being named Steth, who "steals likenesses" by "switching DNA" with his victims...he attacks Paris and exchanges his appearance for Tom's, so Tom looks like the alien Voyager found (which is probably not Steth's real appearance--it's the likeness of his last victim), and Steth now looks like Paris. Steth puts the moves on B'Elanna Fortunately, our very smart crew notices that "Paris" is acting strange, and uncover Steth's deception. OMEGA DIRECTIVE Episode:89 Pcode: 189 Stardate: 51871.2 Guest Stars: Jeff Austin as Allos and Kevin McCorkle as the Alien Captain. Teleplay By: Lisa Klink Story By: Jimmy Diggs & Steve J. Kay. Directed By: Victor Lobl The crew is mystified when Captain Janeway begins an important, though highly secretive, operation in response to a strange subspace disturbance. Chakotay finally compels her to tell the crew so that they may help. Janeway explains that Voyager has detected a dangerous, unstable substance called the Omega. The molecule has the power to destroy space and Starfleet's highly classified operating order is to destroy the Omega whenever it is encountered. Seven of Nine speaks out to say that the Borg believe the Omega can be captured and neutralized for study, which puts her in conflict with Janeway's Starfleet mission.

Robinson Voyager encounters an alien vessel fleeing attack whose sole inhabitant is a female alien asking for Chakotay to help rescue her. The startled Chakotay leads an Away mission to the damaged ship to help the alien, Kellin, who claims that she and Chakotay met before. Back on board Voyager, Kellin claims to have been on the ship not very long ago and she fell in love with Chakotay. Now fleeing her home planet's repressive government, she seeks asylum aboard the starship. Chakotay, though drawn to her, doesn't know whether to believe her or not.

Teleplay by: Bryan Fuller Story by: Brannon Braga Directed By: Tim Russ A curious holographic tableau is on display in a Kyrian Museum and the curator, Quarren, explains to visitors how the intervention of the Voyager spacecraft started an apocalyptic war on a planet inhabited by two species: the Kyrians and the Vaskans. Ethnic rivalries between the two races are still uneasy, seven hundred years after Voyager has come and gone, and some Vaskan visitors are appalled by the Kyrians reconstruction of history based on a few recovered artifacts. But more damaging information is on the way, when Quarren activates a newly discovered device containing active data. This turns out to be the holograph program for The Doctor, who soon finds himself on trial for war crimes attributed to Voyager and its crew over seven centuries ago. DEMON Episode:92 Pcode: 192 Stardate: not given Written By: Kenneth Biller Story By: Andre Bormanis Directed By: Anson Williams With fuel dwindling to nothing, Voyager lands on a "demon" planet -- so- called because its environment is toxic to human life -- to collect from its vast deuterium lode. Both Tom Paris and Harry Kim are suited up in protective gear and sent out to collect the precious deuterium, but return without their protective suits. Instead, it is now Voyager's environment that is poisonous to them. ONE Episode:93 Pcode: 193 Stardate: 51929.3 Guest Stars: Wade Williams as Trajis Lo-Tarik Teleplay By: Jeri Taylor Directed By: Kenneth Biller Encountering a deadly radioactive nebula, Captain Janeway decides to save time by going through rather than around it and orders the crew into protective stasis chambers with Seven of Nine to take lonely command. With the entire crew now in cryogenic sleep, and only the Doctor for company, Seven of Nine is the only living being walking the ship's hallways. The long and lonely journey through the nebula begins to play tricks on the former Borg's mind as she experiences what humans call "hallucinations." An alien, Trajis Lo-Tarik, also making his way through the nebula, asks to trade some vital supplies, but his presence unleashes a series of events that Seven can't decipher as to whether they are real threats -- or even if Trajis himself is real. HOPE AND FEAR Episode:94 Pcode: 194 Stardate: 51978.2 Guest Stars: Ray Wise as Arturis and Jack Shearer as Starfleet Admiral Hayes. Teleplay By: Brannon Braga & Joe Menosky Story By: Rick Berman & Brannon Braga & Joe Menosky Directed By: Winrich Kolbe The badly damaged encoded message received from Starfleet Command five months ago is finally translated by Arturis, an alien passenger recently invited onboard, whose species has a great affinity for language. The directive brings Voyager to a spacecraft, emitting a distinctive Starfleet warp signature, but totally unlike any Starfleet vessel known. With a propulsion system faster than warp speed, the ship is capable of bringing the Voyager crew to Earth - crossing 60,000 light years - within just three months. The crew is elated, but Captain Janeway expresses caution, even though they are all secretly hoping to be home very, very soon. While the crew's excitement grows, so does Seven of Nine's anxiety about living among billions of humans. She asks Captain Janeway to let her depart Voyager and roam the Delta Quadrant on her own.
