Seven is recruited by Captain Braxton for a time-traveling mission to save the Voyager
## Impressions {#impressions}
_Star Trek_ is an amazing space for "standard" stories with a twist.
Here we've got a detective story, but with time travel.
It's close to the greatness of _Time Crimes_ or _Predestination_, which is a huge thumb up from me.
What those two have in common?
They are totally unpredictable, but they do so without being insulting.
Very often twists are done on the expense of the viewer, as important parts of the stories are hidden and explained afterwards.
Here, we're learning everything together with Seven and the others.
I love that!
And it was hell of a ride - on a few occasions I could not predict where the story will go next.
But the biggest shock for me was something I most likely missed a few times before: Jenway was a science officer.
I hated how she instructed her own science officers, but now it makes sense.
She already may be my favorite captain, and this may just cement it.
One thing I did not like was the self-referencing to multiple time-travel problems with Voyager.
If authors found it funny, it should not happen.
Such self-awareness has no place in a decent SF.
Marvel may have become a self-parody, but _Trek_ is on a completely different level.
Here it was a little wink, not a full-blown movie (like the third _Thor_) so I'll allow it.
But I have to say that I am not a fan.
Also - look!
They can make darker ship that is not _black_, like they are in the new ST!
## Doctors factor {#doctors-factor}
Nope, I left unsatisfied.

Dark, but not modern-trek Dark.
