Before the crew leave Moya for the separation attempt, they discover that their ship’s deterioration is not a natural phenomenon at all - the occupants of the other ship have been using a device to render themselves invisible and sabotaging the Leviathan, in order to ensure the crew’s cooperation in keeping the other ship intact. The crew decides to try and save Moya, but they must act quickly - as they spend more time within the wormhole, the serpent becomes more tangible. The two crews battle each other for the upper hand, and eventually Moya and company prevail. The moment of separation is at hand - but one person must stay behind on the other ship to operate the critical controls. Crichton and Aeryn argue over who will stay behind, until Zhaan steps in and reminds them that she is the logical choice - her life is already near its end . As the rest of the crew watches, Zhaan withdraws the other ship from Moya; as Moya re-enters normal space, Zhaan and her ship are destroyed.

Stardate 54704.5: Q returns to Voyager, not having been encountered by Janeway and her crew since he begged Captain Janeway to be the mother of his child. Q managed to conceive a child without Janeway, and now that child is running into trouble with the Q Continuum. Q brings his son to Voyager in the hopes that the crew can teach the boy the qualities of humanity that Q has learned from Starfleet officers past. But the junior Q is undisciplined, bored, and has the same degree of boundless power as his father - and the resemblance of his antics to those of the Q of old are striking. But the younger Q’s impetuous nature may turn deadly for Voyager if neither Janeway nor the elder Q can reign him in.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

The crew visits a memorial to a moment of history where the Peacekeepers lived up to their names, arranging a truce that spared the lives of a group of nurses inside a besieged monastery. Stark’s powers interact strangely with the memorial, opening a crack in time that pulls the crew back to the siege. Upon their arrival, they learn that reality doesn’t quite match up with the legends Aeryn learned in her training; between that and the distortions they created with their very arrival, history soon experiences substantial revision. As Stark tries to find a way to recreate the tear so they can go home, Crichton keeps looking for ways to repair the damage - but this may be one of those occasions that proves the old saying about good intentions.

Stardate 54732.3: Thanks to Q’s reward to Janeway for taking care of his son, Voyager is now within shouting distance of home - or, at the very least, close enough to utilize Lt. Barclay’s latest innovation, a subspace signal bounced into the Alpha Quadrant, enabling real-time communications between Voyager and Starfleet. For the first time since Voyager became stranded in the Delta Quadrant, Harry Kim is able to see his parents, B’Elanna Torres sees her father for the first time in over twenty years, and the entire crew gets their first glimpse of Earth via a satellite transmission. And who has the Doctor been talking to? A Bolian publisher of holonovels, who has shown great interest in the hologram’s dramatization of the crew’s struggles over the past seven years. The Doctor’s crewmates learn about the negotiations for his literary work, but when they play the scenario themselves, they’re appalled to see how the Doctor has exaggerated their worst traits (not to mention his own struggle for equal rights as a member of the crew). The crew suggests more realistic revisions, which the Doctor implements without realizing that his unscrupulous publisher has already gone to “press” - with the wildly unflattering first draft. The crew’s families back home, after experiencing the holonovel, start asking questions about what has really happened to their loved ones in the Delta Quadrant. But when the Doctor tries to seek legal recourse for the unauthorized distribution of his work, the publisher falls back on the very point of the Doctor’s drama - holograms have no rights.

Aboard a Transport Pod in need of refueling and repair, Crichton, Chiana, D’Argo and Jool encounter an older, diseased Leviathan named Rovhu. Moya has missed their scheduled rendezvous to pursue a distress call from Talyn - and eventually finds the warship badly damaged warship and her captain in a coma. All the four on the Pod know is that they need to dock sooner rather than later, so they decide to board Rovhu. They soon discover the ship has been overrun by scavengers that use the ship, its Pilot, and even themselves as food sources. A greater threat is Kaarvok, a fellow with an appetite for brains who appears to kill both Chiana and D’Argo. In truth, Kaarvok has the capability to “twin” people, creating identical genetic copies. Over time, the process causes degradation, explaining the primitive states of the other scavengers. But for now, that means there’s still a living Chiana and D’Argo, and the four Moyans need no persuading to find a way off this Leviathan from hell.

Three people are watching clips of Xena and discussing the show when they receive a call. It’s Alexis, and she tells them that she’s just completed work on the clones of Xena and Gabrielle. She asks them to bring along the clips they have compiled so that they can jump-start the memories of the clones. At the lab, Alexis allows them to go through one session of clips. She doesn’t want to overload the clones. But after they’ve left the lab, someone comes in and disconnects Gabrielle from the video feed - and puts in a disk of evil Xena clips.

Stardate not given: For the first time in seven years, the starship Voyager receives specific orders from Starfleet. The crew is to track down a 22nd century unmanned space probe which was last tracked in the vicinity of Voyager’s current position. The probes last known location is discovered, but to Janeway’s horror, its technology was analyzed by a Delta Quadrant race which reverse-engineered it - and used it to create potent weapons of mass destruction. Janeway must find a way to make reparations for an unforseeable mistake made before the Federation’s Prime Directive existed - and when her away team become hostages, they may pay the ultimate price for mistakes made before the Federation’s non-interference directive existed.
