Episode 73: Revulsion
The Voyager crew seem like the most crazy and wacky funsters ever. I mean, get this right, Paris and Kim for a merry jape programme Tuvok’s computer controls to say “Live long and prosper” every time they’re pushed! How hilarious is that? Data should’ve learned comedy from these guys, never mind Joe Piscopo.
Voyager gets a distress call from a ship where the crew has died but the distress call is from the ship hologram (Leland Orser who plays it particularly well). The Doctor needless to say is understandably curious, it’s not every day you meet a holograpic person, well it is if you’re on Star Trek. As often with these meet ups though he turns out to be a homicidal maniac. It would’ve been better though had we not known had a suspicion of that with the teaser.
In the B story of this episode Seven and Harry Kim have to team up to do a project. Kim who’s fallen for a hologram before needless to say fancies her. Is he an idiot? Seven would literally break him in two.... hmmm.... damnit! They should’ve got together. Oh well, at least fun was had at his expense at the end by Chakotay. Go Chakotay! I know, I sicken me too.
