Review :	A reasonable attempt, but it might be a good idea not to have the ship captured two weeks in a row. Everyone could be certain that there was something fishy about the Nyrians straight away. They were certainly playing up the B'elanna/Tom relationship much of the way through. Chakotay also does not do a very good job of sabotage (for a former terrorist anyway). Even if he could not set auto-destruct, why not set a phaser on overload and beam it to the bridge? Why not shoot out a plasma conduit, or lock out the main computer? None of it was very convincing. The later parts of the episode, the holographic prison ship, were slightly more convincing. However, it might have been more convincing if the takeover had not been complete, and the Voyagers had fought back while still aboard ship. All-in-all, a bit of a mess.

Review :	Definitely a better attempt from Lisa than her last one. The one thing that has always bugged me (not necessarily with this episode alone) is why hasn't the Doctor been better utilized as the ultimate safety protocol. He is sentient and can be grated complete control over all aspects of the ship. I would think it would be nearly impossible for anyone to gain control if the doctor knew all the command codes. There's a story in itself. :-)

Review :	P.S. I give it a 4 for some of the writing. Doctor:"Now I can start my new life as a tricorder" and the exchange between Paris, Torres, and the Doctor regarding romantic behavior.
