Message In A Bottle

When Voyager discovers an ancient communications relay that extends to the Alpha Quadrant, they are able to send The Doctor to an experimental Federation ship, the Prometheus. However, unbeknownst to the Voyager crew, the Prometheus has been commandeered by Romulans.

A special episode.. Andy Dick guest stars, and man, is he obnoxious here!

Starfleet learns that Voyager is still surviving in the Delta Quadrant.

It is also the very last episode of Voyager that George watched with me.

I had taped it that Wednesday, late in January 1998.

He had taped a show about a Mounty in Canada, but I forget what that show was called now.

We watched both shows together Saturday morning, Jan. 31, 1998.. at about 5 or 6 am when, when we both had been unable to sleep.

He agreed that it was a very good Voyager episode.

He died less than 12 hours later.


Hunters

The Voyager crew is excited to begin receiving messages from Starfleet using the newly discovered communications array. However, they soon face a new threat from a violent species of hunters called the Hirogen.

Another good one! Although we first see a Hirogen in " Message In A Bottle " , this is Voyager's first encounter with them.

Prey

When Voyager beams aboard a wounded Hirogen aboard, they inadvertently allow aboard his prey, a Species 8472.

And Seven of Nine disobeys Captain Janeway and beams the wounded 8472 to a Hirigen ship, thus saving voyager from being destroyed by several Hirogen ships.

She is punished for this.

Seven remarks to Janeway that she thought Janeway wanted her to become an individual, but Janeway tells her she just crossed the line.

Three very good eps. in a row.
