Voyager arrives.
Tuvok: "They're raising shields."
Janeway: "Stand by with those command codes. Open a channel." Communication between Voyager and the Lokirrim patrol ship is established. "This is Captain Kathryn Janeway. We don't want a fight. Return my people and we'll be on our way."
Ranek: "Your people were caught transporting a photonic and biogenic material."
Janeway: "We don't want to disable your ship but we will if we have to."
![]() | As contact ends, Chakotay enters the command codes to disable the Lokirrim ship which Seven has obtained. |
![]() | On the Bridge of the Lokirrim ship Jaryn reports: "We're losing our vessel's shield grid."
Ranek: "Compensate." Jaryn: "I'm trying. They've tapped into the shield matrix. They're using your command authorisation!" Ranek activates some controls. On Voyager Tuvok reports: "They're rerouting power. He's tying their shields directly into the warp matrix." Ranek informs Voyager: "If you fire on us you'll trigger a core breach. You'll be killing the people you're here to rescue." Janeway: "End transmission. Tractor beam." |
![]() | As Voyager's tractor beam takes hold, Ranek gives the order: "Full reverse. Target their emitters."
On Voyager Tuvok reports: "They've broken free." |
Janeway: "Chakotay, can you send a comms signal directly to Seven's cortical node?" Chakotay makes the link and Janeway sends the following signal which only the Doctor (in Seven) can hear: "Doctor, if you can hear me, we need your help. Try to disable their shields."

![]() | The Doctor downloads himself out of Seven's cybernetic systems into his mobile emitter.
Seeing this Jaryn observes: "It's a photonic." Seven knocks over a Lokirrim crewmember, grabs their weapon and gives it to the Doctor: "Cover me." The Doctor aims the weapon at those in front of him: "Stay back. I'm not afraid to use this." | ![]() |

![]() | Ranek fires towards Seven's position.
Ranek orders Seven: "Step away." | ![]() |
![]() | As Seven does so Jaryn notices: "She destabilised the shield grid. It's failing."
Ranek hands his weapon to Jaryn ordering her: "Watch them." He moves to the console and starts working the controls. |
![]() | Seven, understanding what he is trying to do, warns: "If you try to re-initialise the grid it'll overload. We could all die." |
![]() | Doctor: "Ranek, don't!" |
![]() | The console explodes and Ranek is hurled backwards onto the floor where he lies, critically injured.
As the Doctor moves towards the fallen Ranek, Jaryn orders: "Stay back." Doctor: "I'm a doctor. Let me help." | ![]() |
![]() | On Voyager Tuvok reports: "Their shields are down. I have a lock."
Janeway signals the Lokirrim ship: "Away team, stand by for transport." Doctor: "I have injured here, Captain. I can't leave yet." |
![]() | The Doctor crouches down to face Jaryn who is bent over the fallen figure of Ranek. "He'll die without immediate surgery. I know this is difficult to grasp, but I'm the person you've been getting to know the last few days. My program was in control of Seven's body."
Jaryn: "You're lying." Doctor: "I know you have feelings for Ranek. If he dies, you're never going to forgive yourself." | ![]() |
