+After a longer hiatus, I am back watching Voyager.
+The previous episode was not memorable, so no review for now.
+But this?
+This is a WOW episode!
+
+Doctor learns that he performed a surgery on Kim 1,5 year ago.
+After an investigation, we learn that /something/ happened then, and it was erased from his memories.
+After and even longer investigation it turns out that Doctor had to make a choice between saving Kim and Ensign Ahni Jetal.
+He has chosen Kim and Ahni dies.
+This causes /moral dilemma/ powerful enough, to break Doctor's programming and Jenwey decides to rewrite him, as he was no longer able to perform his duties as a doctor.
+
+*** Impressions
+
+Wow!
+I was left speechless.
+There are so many aspects that this episode nails.
+
+We've got the basic premise of The Doctor evolving from a simple program into a person.
+I love they have not made it a /Seven/ episode, as Borgs are goto when it comes to such stories.
+Moreover, we've got Jenway who made tough choice between a doctor and The Doctor.
+Love it!
+
+Speaking of which - Jenway is slowly becoming my favorite captain.
+At first, I could not stand her - she was all knowing, perfect and deeply annoying.
+But it's episodes like this that show /why/ she is the captain.
+I can't imagine Picard or Sisko in a situation like this.
+Yes, they all had some tough moral dilemmas - genocides and such - but none were so deeply, interpersonally involved.
+None had to live with the results.
+And Mulligan's performance is perfect.
+We have a scene where Doctor confronts her. In a span of few seconds, se moves from goofy and having fun with the crew to martial tribunal level of seriousness.
+This is not the first time she does it, but everyone I am floored.

+There's more and more of Naomi.
+I can't wait to see what the show has planned for her!
+#+end_img-c
+*** Doctor factor
+
+Happiness of the highest order.
+It's a not only a Doctor episode but also a Perfect Doctor Episode.
+The episode ends with:
+
+#+begin_quote
+In that book, which is my memory, on the first page of the chapter that is the day when I first met you appear the words, 'here begins a new life'
+#+end_quote
+
+
+I love how he is developing through the series and sure hope authors won't forget that this episode exists!
