Trivia
This marks the only on screen appearance of the Delaney twins, who were first mentioned in Time and Again (1995) and have been discussed frequently by Tom and Harry.

Goofs
After Tom is released from the brig, B'Elanna calls him in his quarters and "orders" him to have dinner with her, but she says for him to meet her in her quarters at 0700 hours, which of course is 7 AM, not 7 PM (a more usual time for dinner). She should have said 1900 hours. All true, except as shown, the ship appears to be in evening lighting (Brig and hallways). This might indicate that Tom is released during the third shift's watch, in which case B'Elanna is talking about dinner when she finishes her shift. This could be at 0700.

Quotes
Captain Janeway: Four years ago I released you from prison and gave you a fresh start. Until now you've been a fine officer; your service on this ship has been exemplary. I really believed you were past this kind of conduct.
Lt. Tom Paris: I've never been very good at playing by the rules. That doesn't mean that serving under your command hasn't changed me - for the better. At least, this time I broke the rules for a reason, for something I believed in.
Captain Janeway: I admire your principles, Tom, but I can't ignore what you've done.

9/10

One of my favorite Voyager episodes.

Much like Tom Paris - I was always fascinated with exploration as a kid. Air, sea, space you name it, I loved it. Seeing the Delta Flyer turn into a submarine for this episode and the Monean's whole under sea civilization reminded me of Sea Quest (another 90s show I loved; until they jumped the shark).

This is one of my favorite episodes of Voyager that I missed during its first-run. When I found it when I watched the show for the first time since it's first run about 10 years ago - I couldn't believe it I had missed it.

If you have an interest in the oceanic exploration, Jules Verne, Robert Ballard (guy who found the Titanic), or anything of that nature (you've obviously gotta be a Trekkie too), you'll love this episode.

Tchüss!
