Episode 11: State Of Flux


Well here we finally have the Seska centric episode, is she or isn’t she the traitor?  One can only wonder in suspense.  I can’t believe this episode was also called Seska before it was changed to the one above.  One unfortunate thing about the episode was this was one that Janeway had to be cross in, fortunately she wasn’t in it too much.

If you want my opinion, and presumably you do otherwise you wouldn’t be wasting your time here, this episode seems to make Chakotay a tad... naive, or at least galactically stupid as a titular character was called in Lois & Clark.  I love how the Maquis ship had the two spies Tuvok and Seska on it.  I’d actually rather have seen a series set on it, even a sitcom where they keep getting in each other’s way would be good.  Admittedly Chakotay did punish Seska for breaking into the kitchen and making mushroom soup, so he can’t be all bad.

Seska did have a point though, if Voyager was a Cardassian ship they would’ve been back to the Alpha Quadrant by this point.  Mind you if it were any other Federation ship it would’ve been too, but there you are.
 
I am liking Tuvok more and more as the series progresses which is good since Paris seems to be regressing since we first met him in the pilot.  So that’s Tuvok and the Doctor that are good in the show.
