In previous episodes it has always been shown that the doctor's first activation was in the delta Quadrant; however, we can see in this episode that the doctor was first activated before Voyager's first mission.

In the beginning when Captain Janeway talks to Admiral Patterson, she mentions a pilot she's heard about that would make the job easier. It was established in Caretaker (1995) that Tom Paris would just be an observer. Since this scene is taking place before she and Tom meet, this would still be her position.

When Janeway learns of the distortions, she calls the Doctor to tell him that they're the reason for the crew's space sickness. It should be late evening, some time after 1900, yet when the Doctor goes to a medical emergency in the mess hall, it's mid afternoon sometime after the ping pong tournament, since the ping pong table is still set up. Then, when Chakotay goes to the Captain's office, it's early morning.

The doctor incorrectly refers to Seven's sensory problems as aphasia. Aphasia refers specifically to an impairment in understanding or producing speech.

When Chakotay explains the temporal paradoxes involving time, he says internal chronometers show it's 0600 on deck nine and 0605 ( 0 six hundred 0 5) on deck 13. No one who uses military time would add 100 to the time if it was followed by another number.

When the Doctor gets the call from future Neelix, Neelix says that Ensign Mannus is violently ill, implying vomiting or seizure, but when the Doctor gets there, he sees Mannus simply pass out calmly.

Each time Seven of Nine moves through time, it is evident that Janeway recognizes her and the chroniton readings from her encounters with them in the Utopia Planitia shipyard. But Janeway gives no indication of recognizing Seven of Nine when they first meet in the series, nor does the "current" Janeway (relative to the time line of the series) seem to recall those events.

Captain Janeway addresses Seven as Ensign when seeing the briefing room for the first time, but Seven has her back to Janeway, and there is no way that Janeway would see Seven's pip to know her rank to address her. However, in the beginning of the episode just before this scene, Janeway asks Seven to excuse her and Admiral Patterson, and Seven turns toward Janeway which would reveal Seven's rank.

(at around 10 minutes) Patterson says they are on deck 4; however, they are actually in Engineering, which is on deck 11.

When Lieutenant Ducane says how many times they've recruited Seven of Nine for this mission he says they've recruited her twice before. However when speaking to Captain Braxton, after they inadvertently kill her after she'd been transported, they say that she'd been recruited 3 times.

At the end it's shown that the weapon that Captain Braxton was planning on using was left in the hands of Seven of Nine in the 24th century. The time ship Realativity wouldn't have allowed any futuristic weapons to be in the hands of people in the past.

When Braxton is in the Jeffries tube he arms the temporal disrupter, then when Seven of Nine pursues him at Utopia Planetia the disrupter is no longer armed.

When Seven goes back to stardate 49123, she is captured by Janeway and Tuvok. Under interrogation, Seven admits to being a member of Voyager's crew from the future. As Janeway summarizes the situation, she says, "Let's see if I've got this straight: You're a Borg drone, attempting to prevent a disaster that won't occur for another three years..." But Seven hadn't said from how far in the future she was.

Captain Braxton recalls the events from Future's End (1996) in which he was exiled in 20th century Earth for thirty years. However, this timeline was ultimately corrected by the Voyager crew and not by Braxton as he claims to Seven. In fact, Captain Braxton explained at the end of Future's End: Part II (1996) that he had no memory of the exile on Earth because it was part of a timeline that had ceased to exist.

When Janeway is dragooned into the 29th century, she greets the future crew by asking, "The Timeship Relativity?," but no one ever told her the name of the timeship before she was teleported to the future.

In the 2371-setting (immediately prior to the series start in Caretaker (1995)), Captain Janeway activates Emergency Medical Holograph, in a test run; yet, often in this series, The Doctor has claimed several times that he was first activated on Stardate 48308, when Voyager was already in the Delta Quadrant.

Both 7 of 9 and Captain Braxton wear standard 24th century duty uniforms to infiltrate Voyager in the time period in which the ship is attacked by Kazon. By that point, the Voyager crew, of only about 140 people, had been stranded together for 2 years. A brand new science division ensign appearing out of nowhere would be easy to recognize, even if they wore a Starfleet uniform.

Janeway identifies Bellatrix as an Arabic name. It is Latin, meaning "The Female Warrior." (The script calls attention to this name as an analog to Janeway herself.) The Arabic name is "Al Najid," meaning "The Conqueror."

Janeway discusses the temporal distortions with B'Elanna and Tuvok in Astrometrics. Tuvok says the distortions will destroy the ship in two hours, yet in her next scene much later, Janeway calmly orders coffee. One would think she'd be much more anxious knowing her ship's about to be destroyed.
