    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Two additional days of filming were necessary because David Livingston had directed the episode so tightly that it came in about 9 minutes too short. Additional scenes were written, and showrunner Jeri Taylor was so impressed with the quality of the extra scenes that she defied anyone to try and identify the 'filler material'.
    • Goofs
      Ensign Wildman reports to Captain Janeway in Elogium (1995) that she is pregnant but that she and her husband weren't worried about it when she left Deep Space Nine on Stardate 48315.6 (26 April 2371, happening in Caretaker (1995)). Wildman finally gives birth in "Deadlock" on Stardate 49548.7 (19 July 2372), 15 months later. Even with an interspecies pregnancy, it is unlikely that a human female would be pregnant for that long.

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: It's good to have you back, Ensign.

      Ensign Harry Kim: Thank you... I think.

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: Something wrong?

      Ensign Harry Kim: I'm not sure. I mean... this isn't really my ship, and you're not really my Captain, and yet you are, and... there's no difference, but I know there's a difference. Or is there? It's all a little weird.

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: Mr. Kim, we're Starfleet officers. Weird is part of the job.

    Rick and Morty did it better
    Gonna try and avoid spoilers for after like the first 20 minutes of the episode, but if you're going to watch it anyways don't read reviews lol.

    Voyager hits another spacial anomaly (cos the galaxy is just teeming with them!) and the whole ship becomes split somehow creating two Voyagers occupying the same space, but still using the same antimatter core? Got it? Definitely

    They attemt to remerge using advanced future technology such as modulation of things, variation of phase, quantum polarising the encabulator and all that...

    Now this part makes no sense to me. If they were to remerge while the whole crew is in different locations in the ship wouldn't they all be quantumly destroyed? Same with the two ships themselves. One is a total wreck barely alive and the other is totally fine. They are completely different now, what happens if they recombine does it just average everything out?

    I probably thought way too hard about this... but it really reminded me of that R&M episode where they split reality and they had to stay in the same location to remerge or it messed everything up more.

    Overall Deadlock is a decent episode I must say, if you can ignore the nonsense that is. It raises some interesting philosophical dilemmas if nothing else.
