Another great episode in the SAME season?! Surely this has to some kind of mistake. Or perhaps it’s even the long sought after proof of chaos theory. And not just a great episode, I think this is probably the best episode of Voyager yet, which you’d expect from an episode that doesn’t actually feature anyone from the Voyager crew except the Doctor (well sort of).
Seven hundred years in the future, a backup of the Doctor’s programme is re-initiated on a Delta Quadrant planet in the Kyrian Museum of Heritage. Here they have the effects of Voyager’s encounter with the Kyrian and Vaskan races (and their continuing struggle with each other) played out on screens. Except this Voyager isn’t quite the one we know, it’s a ship of war filled with Borg assassins, biogenic weapons and briefing room brawls. In short it’s awesome.
Not that I’d want Voyager to be a ship of war or anything (well except when the Kazon were concerned) but it was fun seeing it briefly with the crew and Mulgrew in particular hamming it up as a psychotically evil captain. The best part of the episode though has to be the Doctor’s interaction with museum curator and how history is interrupted rather than being just facts. Robert Picardo’s acting was brilliant too, with him being a man(hologram) out of time, not being able to see his crewmates again as it was centuries ago despite it being days for him.
There is virtually nothing in this episode I didn’t like. I don’t know what to believe anymore.
