Warhead

While Harry Kim has the comm, a distress call is recieved. He, the Doctor and a crewman beam down to a planet to find a form of articial intelligence in the shape of a missle, just over 1 meter in length.

It can communicate with the Doctor in a binary language.

They beam it aboard Voyager.

It is friendly at first until a repair activates part of it's missing memory
- it is a weapon of mass destruction, on a mission to destroy an enemy planet.

It takes over the Docor's holographic matrix and demands to be taken to it's target.

Several attempts by Voyager crew fail to stop it.

Harry is able to discover a missing file which tells the weapon that the war is over.

At first, it refuses to listen, but Harry is finally able to get the weapon to become more than it is.. and to see past the limitations of it's programming.

Another 32 weapons fly in and surround Voyager. The weapon tells Harry to trust him to stop the other weapons.

Harry tells Janeway to beam the weapon outside the ship, where it's friends put a tractor beam on it to take it to their destination.

The weapon detonates, destroying the other 32 missles, far from anyone or anything that can be harmed.

This is an excellent episode. We get to see another side to Harry Kim, where he
shines and shows that he can handle an extremely stressful situation.

The dialogue between Harry and the weapon is flawless and very real.
