They missed a trick with the beginning of the episode, the cut into the credits has Janeway asking Neelix about the viewscreen which he says is the Nekrid Expanse. Cue ominous shot and credits. If only when it had come back he’d have added “It’s quite nice actually”.
Hey, it’s the contractually obliged Neelix episode, with Neelix worried how the crew will put up with him now that the limit of his knowledge of the Delta Quadrant is being reached. If I were him I’d have been worried a long time before now, but I digress. Neelix meets up with another Talaxian, Wixabin or Weetabix, something like that who he was involved in a smuggling operation with. I thought we’d seen this Talaxian before but then it turns out they all look alike (little bit racist). Neelix ends up drug dealing with this guy on the space station they visit, in order to get a map so he can help the crew of Voyager as normal. Just say no, kids.
And what’s this?! There’s another Vulcan on board who has never been seen before but no-one questions his sudden appearance. This is also known as the Chekhov Effect.
Janeway tells Neelix that he’s one of her most trusted advisers but how can she trust him again? What like Tuvok? Guess they’re all just dropping like flies. Before you know it she’ll be left to just trusting... well, Neelix.
