Quotes
Seven of Nine: You were a member of the Maquis. Starfleet Command will no doubt hold you responsible for a multitude of crimes. You will find nothing on Earth but adversity.
B'Elanna Torres: Well, that's looking on the bright side. Let's put it this way: I'd rather face the music at home than spend the rest of my life in the Delta Quadrant.

So many plot holes!

Aside from the fact that both Janeway and Seven of Nine were far more indecisive than they've ever been, this story relies on one "coincidence" after another. They just happen to meet someone who can help with their current problem! And it just happens that he can use this to his advantage! And it just happens that a very-helpful ship is nearby! And on and on, I ran out of patience long before the "stunning" finish.
