BARGE OF THE DEAD
Season 6 : Episode 123

 

MEDICAL REPORT:

Torres returns to Voyager in a damaged shuttlecraft - it lost life support but weathered the ion storm and was safely tractored onto the ship where the Doctor treated her. When Torres decides to go on a spiritual Klingon journey, to induce the coma in her the Doctor has the computer erect an isolation field around the surgical bay, decrease oxygen concentration within the forcefield by 27 per cent and ionise the atmosphere to 5,000 particles per cubic metre. When the Doctor initiates emergency resuscitation upon Torres, he orders the ionised particles to be vented and orders 20 milligrammes of cordrazine. To aid the process, before commencing, Torres lights candles in Sickbay.

STAR TREK CONTEXTUAL MEDICAL GLOSSARY:

Cordrazine.

DOCTOR'S QUOTE:

Enthusiastically getting into the spirit of the Klingon evening: "It's not about drinking, Seven. It's about saluting the noble deeds of our ancestors and honouring those who fell in battle. Think, Qapla'. Think, long live the Empire!"
