Review of Memorial

Star Trek: Voyager: Memorial (2000)
Season 6, Episode 14
7/10
Great concept and multiple strong performances
20 July 2020
Voyager crew start having distressing flashbacks to an event where atrocities were committed against civilians. Seven of Nine is on the case to solve a refreshingly unpredictable mystery.

Lots of strong performances in this one as multiple characters suffer the effects of PTSD. Ethan Phillips in particular stands out playing the Neelix character not only distressed from the visions but from the worry of having Naomi Wildman bear witness to one of his episodes.

My favourite scene is the exchange between Neelix and Seven of Nine regarding how she deals with difficult memories of actions taken whilst part of the Borg collective.

The eventual resolution is handled sensibly with Janeway delivering a compromised solution to the problem. (Caution when reading some of the other more negative reviews that seem to miss one very important detail in this matter)
