In this episode of Star Trek: Prime Directive, Captain Buzzkill finds herself forced to go into an alliance against her will. You see the Federation isn't a series of alliances at all, what was I thinking.
Still it gives us a chance to see Cullah and Seska again and see what the Delta Quadrants Lucy and Ricky are up to today. More scheming it seems.
The story started off well, straight into the action as Voyager us getting pounded by Kazon ships, again and again. It seems to be the equivalent of getting punched by a group of bullies and pretending they're not there. Unsurprisingly this strategy doesn't come off and results in a crew members death which kicks everything off.
Voyager almost forms an alliance with the I Love Seska show but Ricky ruins that so naturally the Kazon's enemy the Trabe are the next best choice. Aren't there more people in this Quadrant that just the Kazon and their enemies they could ally themselves with? No? No?
What wasn’t necessarily a bad episode was let down enormously at the end by Buzzkill’s “Ha, I told you so” speech to her senior staff. I’m surprised Chakotay didn’t just get up and land a punch on her; mind you it would’ve probably reduced im to tears as he doesn’t like it when Mummy and Daddy fight.
