Seven, with a help from the Doctor explores another aspect of being human - intimate relations.
At the same time Voyager is visited by an ambassador of a very strict-moral race.
## Impressions {#impressions}
What an episode!
I don't remember when was the last time I've laughed so hard.
The idea is amazing: the Doctor is to teach Seven how to date.
The one person who has no idea how.
The execution is perfect.
The duo is playing of themselves marvelously.
It starts with Doctor giving Seven some exercises which she perfects swiftly.
At least she thinks so...
A lot of scenes happen in Holodeck with simulated partners.
It works very well and allows the scenes not to stop suddenly, as the programs are designed not to leave their worst dates ever.
The one downside here is that we have a _kids show_ trait of Doctor and Paris betting on Seven's success, and it ends in a bit of drama.
But this is small scratch on this diamond of an episode.
The religious plot B is, well, ok.
Nothing to write about.
This applies to the entire episode: not much to **write** about, but a lot to experience.
It's not a story-heavy episode but a visceral one.
## Doctor factor {#doctor-factor}
Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
This may have been the best Doctor episode, even though he was not the primary focus.
Not only is he hilarious, but this may be his biggest growth yet.
My disappointment will be immeasurable if authors won't develop his love toward Seven deeper.

Yes, Doctor and Seven dancing.
