Trivia
Garrett Wang has claimed that the scene in this episode where Tom Paris asks Harry Kim if he has put on weight was a slight against the male actors on Voyager, as they all had put on weight during the fourth season. Wang claimed that he asked executive producer Brannon Braga why this issue was brought up on the show and Braga allegedly responded "Well, if you and Robert Duncan McNeill continue on your eating ways, we'll have to change the name of the show to 'Star Trek: Voyager - Pigs in Space.'"

Goofs
Paris says the temperature on the planet is "500 degrees Kelvin." The Kelvin scale is not measured in degrees. The correct description would be "500 Kelvins."

Quotes
Harry Kim: When I first came on board Voyager, I was pretty green, right?
Tom Paris: A deep, almost fluorescent green, if I remember correctly.

proves season 4's quality

This episode may seem boring at the beginning, even out of place; that's how it seemed to me. But even though such dilemmas and developments as are shown here may seem unusual, this episode is part of a continuing "meaning of life" trend seen over and again in voyager. The #1 best part of the episode takes place in the transporter room with captain Janeway "showing her true colors" as a friend of mine put it; thankfully she relents.

The second best episode is that (what will become) a trend in Harry Kim's behavior starts here. Not just speaking out his opinion, but having confidence in his opinions and standing up for himself. Kim is right: he has a lot more experience now than when he first signed on as a "green", young ensign. Bottom line: if you can bear the first 10 minutes, the rest is great!
