First of all I am typing this write up on a touch screen keyboard which is driving me nuts so it is going to be kinda short. I actually really liked this one both because it felt like a good TNG episode but also because of how badass Janeway is. When Tom and B'Elana left alien weapons behind I was hella pissed. A few minutes later though Janeway cornered the alien leaders in a dangerously cold place while packing serious alien heat. The Paris/Torres relationship seems to be making progress too.
The episode opens with Torres and Paris fighting as usual until a random alien appears. Also at the same moment a member of the crew disappeared. After pretending they don't know whats going on for a while the aliens become hostile. Eventually Chakotay is alone and while he damaged the ship it isn't enough and he finds himself with the rest of the crew. A different alien shows up and helps the get out of the fake environment they find themselves in. Tuvok rigs up phasers and they manage to take control of the habitat ship after some extreme Janeway negotiating.
Review: As you can probably tell I really liked the episode. The summary doesn't do it justice, go check this one out!
8 out of 10
