### Impressions
-What a nice start for season 6, but also a wasted potential. While the main plot is what Star Trek does best and the special effects are becoming great, the period between entering the void and the ship losing power could be filled with the crew's intimate moments. I said it before, and I'll repeat it - Voyager is in deep need of idle moments where people could simply hang out. Some chats, some banter, maybe a dinner or a classic concert. Next Generation's greatest strength was not in the SciFi elements but in the people living on Enterprise. I understand that Voyager faces incomparable dangers. Picard was always close to home, so even in the severe of circumcisions could ask for help from Starfleet. Voyager, however, is always in hostile space, fighting for resources. Jenwey keeps her humanity and hunger for exploration, but her mission is survival. But why can't we have a Shakespearean performance? Yes, we get glimpses here and there, but we deserve more.

-But what strikes me most is how Jenway grew on me. First, she annoyed me. She was always the loudest and greatest. She knew tactics better than her military officers, engineering better than her engineers, and perfect diplomacy, for here is just another Tuesday. She was the anti-Picard, who always treated his crew with dignity and admiration (sans Wesley) But as I learned, she is the captain Voyager needs. The Delta Quadrant is so hostile that the crew needs a decisive leader. But she has also changed. She knows that she puts the crew at constant risk, and this is the episode that confronts it.

-There's a lot more to her that she allows the crew (and the viewer) to see. She is fully aware of the burden on her arms and how much she relies on her judgment. This is why the mutiny is fulfilling. She finally allows the crew to decide! There is no fight in her, but rather a relief. The old Jenway would not agree to a plan contrary to her own. The previous 5 years in the Quadrant have taught her to trust others. I wonder if this will in anyway impact her in the future.
