A Cardassian weapon that Belanna altered during her Maquis years reappears & threatens a world here. It's a rather talky ep, lots of character exposition. Ultimately things are fixed up

#StarTrekMarathon #StarTrek Voyager Ep 33 - Dreadnought - 12 Feb 1996 2/2 (which wasn't a surprise). A couple of ongoing plot lines are advanced here - The Doctor choosing a name, Samantha Wildman's pregnancy, and Michael Jonas collaboration with the Kazon. Not a bad ep, but somewhat predictable.
