Notes

• Running fired torpedo count: 23 / Confirmed crew deaths since pilot: 13 (crew of 141 – departure of Kes).
• It is said that it’s just been three days since the events of “Day of Honor“, but the episode “Nemesis” happens in-between them. Originally this episode was supposed to be broadcast in a different order.
• Tuvok is promoted to Lt. Commander in this episode.  Additionally, Neelix gets an official commission as an ambassador.
• The last episode where Seven wears the silver outfit.
• The events of the episodes “Day of Honor” and “Alter Ego” are recalled here.
• Leland Orser played Dejaren here.  He was also the Vulcan Look in DS9’s “The Die is Cast“, Gai in DS9’s “Sanctuary“, and Loomis in Enterprise’s “Carpenter Street“.  He was also in one of my favorite movies – “Independence Day“.
• The eventual astrometrics lab on the ship is referenced here in that Harry & Seven come up with construction plans for it.  It’s used quite a lot in seasons to come.
