| Review : | A very calm episode solely devoted to character development and humor, something that later Voyager episodes rarely did. I loved seeing Seven take a stab at dating (and tearing Chapman's ligament dancing was funny), and the scenes with the drunken ambassador and the crew trying to sober him up before Janeway's return were hilarious. | ||

| Review : | The poor old Doctor. This was certainly a good episode for character development. A hologram who spent the first three years carving out his own personality guiding a Borg through the same thing. The dating plot made an excellent vehicle for that, with echoes of "In Theory" and perhaps "Pygmalion". 'You Are My Sunshine' was a highlight, and I think that Robert Picardo and Jeri Ryan did their own singing. If so, then she does indeed have a wonderful voice. We also got to see Seven's deadpan wit on one or two occasions. The B-plot, with the puritanical ambassador indulging himself, reminded me of a P.G. Wodehouse story (not a good one). It was really the only blemish on what was otherwise a well-written episode. Finally, why did Paris sabotage the Doctor's date with Seven? Maybe he thought he was not playing by the rules of the wager. | ||

| Review : | An excellent episode. However, I am annoyed that the Doctor/Seven relationship was never carried further. | ||
