Notes

• Running fired torpedo count: 79. This contradicts the hard limit set in “The Cloud” of 38.
• This episode follows up (briefly) on the events of “Human Error” relative to a relationship between Seven & Chakotay.
• Voyager loses a shuttle in this episode – the 11th overall.  They seem to be able to 3D print them given they wouldn’t have carried that many when they started the series.  :)
• The Ledosian ambassador was played by Robert Curtis Brown.  He was also Sorad in the DS9 episode “Sanctuary“.
• Kleg was played by Neil Vipond.  He was also Darok in the DS9 episode “Once More Unto the Breach“.
• A Ventu healer was played by Paul Sandman.  He was an unnamed Klingon in “The Way of the Warrior” and two Klingons in video games.  One was unnamed in “Star Trek: Klingon” and the other was Toq in  “Star Trek: Klingon Academy”.
• Another species number by the Borg is mentioned (312), but we don’t know who it is supposed to be.
