| Review : | Right, I'm not sure if any of this ever happened, but it makes a half-decent ghost story. There's been more than one plot where the ship turns on the crew, and I suppose that this one is a fairly decent example. Neelix held us all in suspense, which is not bad, considering I usually find him plain annoying. Janeway standing up to the creature as it talked to her in the voice of the computer was a decent and effective scene. The Borg children certainly have some odd turns of phrase, and I especially like the moment where Icheb corrects Neelix on a piece of technobabble. That seems like a nod to all those fans who yell at the screen whenever a YATI pops up. I guess the moral of the story is 'always check nebulae before you harvest them, you never know who might be living there'. | ||

| Review : | We're offered something different from the norm here with the ship itself presented as menacing and haunted, something I think only TNG's "Night Terrors" and ENT's "Oasis" have done. While I didn't find this as scary as Night Terrors, it buries Oasis. I liked the performances and enjoyed the tone, and the panic attack sequence is like something that would be happening to these people in real life if they had to deal with this kind of stuff with no way out other than through. I remember quite a fuss being made of this episode before its UK premiere and I feel it's another under-rated episode. | ||
