Stardate 50732.4: Ensign Kim fires without warning or explanation on an alien ship. This startling action has apparently saved Voyager, but Harry continues to “remember&quo;t things about a place he’s never been. When more Nasari ships appear to press the attack, Voyager is saved by a Taresian vessel and escorted to their homeworld with the surprising news that Harry is actually a Taresian – conceived in the Delta Quadrant and taken to Earth for fosterage unknown to his human parents. The Taresians bend over backwards to welcome Harry back to the fold, even preparing him for their form of multiple marriage, but Harry and the crew sense something amiss.

Stardate not given: “Grandma Kes” awakens surrounded by people who claim they are her family, but whom she doesn’t recognize. She fades into unconsciousness and reawakens at a slightly earlier time in her life. Although she remembers the experience, it apparently hasn’t happened yet for the rest of the crew. Confused and frightened, Kes continues to experience the morilogium – the final phase of the Ocampan lifespan – as well as the temporal effects of life-extension treatments in the Doctor’s experimental bio-temporal chamber. As the temporal effects grow more and more out of control, Kes regresses through her entire life, seeing a 9-year history of Voyager in reverse as she struggles to understand her situation and how to stop what is happening to her.

Stardate 50836.2: As the crew investigate the apparent destruction of a Vostigye science station, the Doctor works on a program which has created a family for him to interact with. He invites B’Elanna and Kes to join him in the holodeck for dinner with his new wife and children, and they strike the chief engineer as being “ridiculously perfect.” B’Elanna offers to help tweak the program a bit to bring it more in line with the real experience of home life.

Stardate not given: The Voyager crew are unwitting research subjects after scientists of the Voth, a reptilian race who believe they were the first intelligent beings to evolve in the Delta Quadrant, discover the human remains of Voyager crewman Hogan and find a genetic pattern similar to their own. When Gegen, the chief researcher, suggests that based on these findings, the true origin of the Voth is Earth, their leader, Minister Odala, deems him a heretic. To prove his theory, Gegen and his assistant Veer track down Voyager, infiltrate the ship and take their next research subject, Chakotay, hostage.

Stardate 50912.4: As Nyrians begin appearing on the Voyager at 9:20 intervals, crewmembers begin to disappear at the same rate. Although the visitors seem peaceful, Janeway suspects an organized takeover. Her suspicions are confirmed as the crew find themselves in a holographically generated environment where they are held prisoner. The startling appearance of a fellow prisoner from an adjoining “cell” makes them realize how to move between areas of what turns out to be a giant ship filled with different environments and a command center with an extremely long-range transporter.

Stardate not given: Voyager encounters a handful of ships carrying the only survivors of a Delta Quadrant race which was all but wiped out by the Borg, and Janeway agrees to the refugees’ requests for supplies. The reminder of the Borg’s destructive power doesn’t help the crew’s perception of Seven of Nine, who requests an assignment to engineering. B’Elanna, who is already suffering her way through the traditional Klingon Day of Honor, doesn’t welcome the former Borg, who has proposed using transwarp flight to speed Voyager’s journey. The transwarp experiment fails, forcing B’Elanna to dump the warp core into open space – and the Ketati refugees take possession of the core before she and Paris can salvage it via shuttle. And the Ketati would also like Janeway to hand Seven of Nine over to them so they can settle old scores.

Stardate 51082.4: Chakotay is stranded on a world torn by war, his shuttle shot down by one of the aggressors. After a reluctantly friendly Voray defender is shot down by the Kradin while trying to take Chakotay back to his shuttle, the first officer has to adopt the Voray’s indigenous clothing for cover. That night, he is traveling with the Voray soldiers to their base, in the hope that they will be able to contact Voyager, and sees for himself the way the Kradin dispose of the Voray. Still wary of involving himself in their way, Chakotay is forced to defend himself when the nemesis ambushes his party, and escapes wounded while the rest of the Voray fall in the attack. He makes his way to a nearby village and is cared for until the Kradin attack there, too. On Voyager, Janeway has been offered help in locating her first officer. An ambassador from one of the warring races beams up to discuss the situation, an ambassador who is horrified at the way his helpless people are being preyed upon by their merciless nemesis…an ambassador of the Kradin.

Stardate 51186.2: Voyager receives a distress call from a hologram aboard an alien ship who claims that his organic crewmates are dead. Naturally, the Doctor takes a particular interest in this away mission and visits the ship along with Torres. The hologram is a nervous wreck with a great deal of hostility toward organic life forms, which manifests itself in a conversation with B’Elanna. On Voyager, Seven of Nine is assigned to help Harry with a new project, and Harry goes from dreading her company to seeing her as viable female companionship, although the former Borg is only confused by his flirtations (and scares him with her own direct approach to human relationships). If the Doctor can escape his fellow hologram’s murderous obsession, Harry may need his help if Seven of Nine gets her hands on him.

Note: Tuvok is promoted to lieutenant commander at the beginning of this episode, although he wore the rank insignia of a lieutenant commander through much of the first season.

Stardate 51244.3: The strain of the long journey appears to be taking its toll on Voyager’s crew – Janeway seems more irritable than usual, B’Elanna and Tom more amorous than usual, and everyone seems to be on edge. At first, the abnormal behavior is dismissed as stress, until actual physical changes accompany them – Chakotay experiences the premature onset of old age, and Neelix is mutated into a species related to Talaxians. When the Doctor and B’Elanna investigate, they find that the crew is being tampered with down to the genetic level, but before this information can be relayed to Janeway, B’Elanna falls ill and the Doctor’s remote holographic projector is mysteriously damaged. The Doctor warns Seven of Nine, and she discovers that there are aliens – invisible to most visible wavelengths – conducting experiments on the entire crew. Seven must bring the experiments to a halt while keeping the aliens from realizing that she is aware of their presence.

Stardate 51268.4: Annorax, a Krenim temporal scientist, has accidentally destroyed his home as he knows it through the use of a temporal weapon which removes his enemies from history. A temporal shock wave – the physical sphere of the temporal weapon’s influence – hits a wayward Federation starship called Voyager, of which Annorax has no knowledge. Somehow, the inhabitants of the anomalous ship have discovered a way to protect themselves from the effects of the temporal weapon – and Annorax must find a way to erase them from the timeline before they jeopardize his plan.
