Episode 49: Sacred Ground


So Voyager's taking a tour of a random planet's spirtual complex, it's not like they have anything better to do.  What?  Travel to the Alpha Quadrant?  Trust me Star Fleet's better off without them.  Anyway, Kes is injured and to cut a long story short (it doesn't) Janeway has to seek an audience with the spirits, and to do that she has to forget about science and give in to blind faith.  Well, it's not as if science has done anything for us.  Well apart from rocket travel, improved life expectancy and well everything, what has science ever done for us?
 
Of course during this we have Neelix wallowing in his own self pity and being as annoying a character as he normally is.  I swear there were a couple of episodes in which he was good in, more if you count the ones he wasn’t in.  Yet, they ignore them and continue writing him in the same way with no change to his character at all.
 
Meanwhile whilst all this is going on before you can say "written out of character" Chakotay is actually trying to talk Janeway out of this.  Is he jealous now somebody else has their own spirtual shtick?
Isn’t it time for another silly episode?  I’m getting a bit bored of these...um... boring ones.
