    • Trivia
      Mention of the Beta Quadrant in this episode has led some fans to speculate that Voyager was approaching the edge of the Delta Quadrant by this stage in its journey. Voyager had traveled over 40,000 light years from its starting position (the edge of the Delta Quadrant and the known galaxy) in seven years. It is possible Voyager was nearing the center of the galaxy (where all four quadrants converge).

      [the Doctor thinks his program is about to break down]

      The Doctor: [to Janeway] I've had something on my conscience for a long time. After I was first activated, I kept a record of what I considered to be your most... questionable command decisions. It's in my personal database. I hope you'll delete the file without reading it.

      The Doctor: [to Tuvok] Mr. Tuvok. I violated the most sacred trust between a physician and his patient. I told Mr. Neelix about the cutaneous eruption you developed on your...

      [looks furtively around, realizing everyone else is listening]

      The Doctor: That was indiscreet. I hope you can forgive me.

      The Doctor: [to Kim] Ensign. At your recital last month, I told Lieutenant Torres that your saxophone playing reminded me of a wounded targ. I should have put it more delicately! I'm sorry!

      The Doctor: [pushing Kim aside] Seven.

      Seven of Nine: You should remain still.

      The Doctor: You have no idea how difficult it's been, hiding my true feelings all these years, averting my eyes during your regular maintenance exams.

      [the Doctor's holomatrix starts to glitch]

      The Doctor: [falling on his knees] I know you could never have the same feelings for me, but I want you to know the truth. I love you, Seven.

      [his program glitches again]

      Seven of Nine: Your cognitive algorithms are malfunctioning.

      The Doctor: [stands up and waves the others goodbye] Goodbye, my friends! Speak well of me!

      [the Doctor disappears]

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: Is he...?

      B'Elanna Torres: No, I've got him.

      [the Doctor reappears, with his hand still held up]

      The Doctor: What happened?

      B'Elanna Torres: I deleted the extraneous subroutines.

      The Doctor: I'm not going to decompile?

      Captain Kathryn Janeway: [dourly] You'll probably outlive us all.

      [hands him back his mobile emitter]

      Tom Paris: Doc... anything... else you'd like to confess?

    I think the Doctor was very poorly written in this episode....very poorly.
    I really did NOT like this episode as the Doctor's character really behaved irrationally. So much of what he did simply made very little sense.

    When the show begins, the Captain mentions that they'll be jettisoning the warp core and moving to a planet nearby! Her reason for this seems silly and through the course of the show, she acts batty. It's because down deep it ISN'T her but the Doctor posing as her! In fact, he then poses as several other crew members--all in order to steal the ship's warp core. Why he's done all this is explained but his logic sure seems faulty and stupid. Overall, this is a very weak episode--the sort that make you feel that it was about time to end the series--which occurs in the following episode. The only real positive part of the show is when the Doctor thinks he's dying and he makes some funny confessions.
