Star Trek: Voyager: Season 1

1x13 Cathexis

As this began, I was worried it was going to be a god awful Chakotay vision quest/spiritual episode, but fortunately that's not the case. Things start off slow, but there's are some fun moments as the crew become paranoid about who might be possessed by the alien entity, but Star Trek has done (and will do) this story far better several times over.

It's also inexplicably dumbed down for what I have to assume the writers believed were a stupid audience. Harry seems to be the voice of their confusion: "Chakotay? But he's in sickbay!". No, Harry, we've been dealing with non-corporeal floating energy beings for the whole episode, stop being a moron.

Most of all, I just need to know: WHAT'S ON THE FOURTH FLOOR?!
