Storyline

Both the Voyager crew and the Maquis have to deal with the powerful alien - the Caretaker - who transported them 70,000 light-years across the galaxy, to see if he will send them back home. At the same time, a group of warrior aliens called the Kazon strive to gain control of the Caretaker's space station and become the most powerful force in the region. Written by Tony-B4

Trivia

It was planned for the EMH to be called Dr. Zimmerman. They later decided to keep the character named "The Doctor" throughout the run, however the creator of the EMH program was later named Dr. Lewis Zimmerman. Certain episodes from seasons 1-2 feature the name in the closed captions for the Doctor's part. See more »

Goofs

Continuity: After Torres & Kim are rescued on Ocampa, they are beamed directly to Voyager's sick bay, still wearing the clothes given to them by the Ocampan doctors. But when the scene segues back to Voyager's sick bay, Torres is wearing leather civilian clothes and Kim is wearing a uniform. (These clothes had been removed from them on the Caretaker's array.)
