- Ensign Jenkins is played by McKenzie Westmore. She is Star Trek royalty. She is the daughter of TOS makeup artist Michael Westmore and the grand-niece of TOS hair stylist Pat Westmore. Westmore also appeared as Rose in TNG’s “When the Bough Breaks“, a Ba’ku woman in Star Trek Insurrection, and a character named Rhomsew in Star Trek Picard’s “Maps and Legends” episode.
- The character Onquanii was played by Steven Dennis. He was also two different “Night Aliens” in the episode “Night“. He was Fennim in “Think Tank“, Crewman Thompson in Equinox Part I & Part II, and the Andorran Tholos in the Enterprise episodes “The Andorian Incident” & “Shadows of P’Jem“.

It's not exactly bad (has a good performance by Robert Picardo), but the plot feels rather recycled from the other

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Voyager Ep 119 - Warhead - 19 May 1999 2/2 episodes I mentioned. There is some talk about the Doctor exceeding his programming - like Kryten of Red Dwarf. But the draw here is the performance of Picardo. His "yelling" never crosses into comedy. Plot's pedestrian, tho.
