Trivia
In the beginning of this episode, Tom Paris and Harry Kim both try to guess Tuvok's age unsuccessfully, and unfortunately Tuvok never reveals his real age. According to the Official Star Trek Chronology, the events of
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, which was also depicted in
Star Trek: Voyager: Flashback occurred in the year 2293. In "Flashback", Tuvok told Captain Janeway that he was 29 years old when he served on the USS Excelsior, which would put his birth year at 2264. Assuming this episode took place in 2376 or 2377 (
Star Trek: Voyager takes place between 2371 and 2378), this would place Tuvok's age at either 112 or 113 during this episode.

Tuvok:
I see no reason to enlighten you.
Harry Kim:
Don't tell ...

I love star Trek in all its iterations. But, this is what is wrong with all of the different series. To paraphrase the great Douglas Adams, space is big. Really big. For this man to run a business out in space is preposterous. The possibility that the Voyager crew would EVER come in contact with another race is improbable. Coming into contact with a now race EVERY WEEK. It is to much. The most likely scenario for the Voyager crew is: miraculous transport to the Delta Quadrant escape from the caretaker escape from the Caison eighty years of travel while never coming into contact with another living soul return to Earth generations later
