He soon figures out a way to disengage Janeway and Seven of Nine, who then must begin to figure out how to defeat the Hirogen at their own game.Īll hell breaks loose on Voyager when the "implanted" crewmembers invade the "secret German bunker." Only The Doctor, forced to mend the steady stream of wounded crewmembers to sick bay, is conscious of the invaders. Implanted with subdermal transmitters the crewmembers have no knowledge that they are playing. One of the scenarios takes place in occupied France, with the Hirogen as Nazi SS Officers chasing down Captain Janeway, Seven of Nine, Tuvok and Torres as members of the French Resistance. Having invaded Voyager and discovered the many uses of the Holodeck, Hirogen hunters have been playing a deadly game with crew members of the USS Voyager, putting them through various scenarios in which they are being hunted down as prey. When the creature that he has been hunting across space- species 8472, lethal even to the Borg - boards the USS Voyager. Janeway disavows her concern and brings the Hirogen on board. Janeway orders that the alien be beamed into the USS Voyager's sickbay, despite Seven of Nine's warnings that the formidable Hirogen would regard the crew as no more than prey to be hunted and killed. The USS Voyager encounters a Hirogen ship, adrift, with a critically wounded Hirogen hunter on board.
Living for the thrill of the hunt, the Hirogen have targeted the USS Voyager's crew as prey in the latest hunt. Before they can, however, they are captured, beamed aboard an alien vessel and trussed-up like animals as a rude introduction to the Hirogen, a hostile, alien race of hunters. Tuvok and Seven of Nine are ordered to board a shuttle and inspect the craft. The USS Voyager proceeds to the alien craft to attempt retrieval of the remaining transmissions. Many messages are still being held at the module. Except for the fact that Janeway's lover moved on, and for Voyager's Maquis, they found out that their rebellion was destroyed by the Cardassians and a race from the Gamma Quadrant, the Jem Hadar. However, for Captain Janeway and others, their joy is tempered by bittersweet news. The USS Voyager's crew is elated to finally hear from loved ones after so many years. Miraculously, the ship begins receiving messages, transmitted across the vast distances over the same relay system, from relieved family and friends back home. Thanks to the success of The Doctor's previous mission, the USS Voyager has at last made contact with Starfleet Command by using a far-flung array of alien relay modules to communicate with Earth and let them know that they are, indeed, alive - although many light years away. On board, The Doctor discovers that the vessel is an experimental Starfleet prototype with secret advanced technology, including the emergency medical hologram EMH-2, an upgraded - though highly unstable - version of The Doctor's original program. After several message attempts fail, Seven of Nine rigs a network of transceivers that enable The Doctor to be transported to the ship to that he can let Starfleet know that the USS Voyager and her crew are still alive. Ī Starfleet ship, the Prometheus, is detected in the Alpha Quadrant, thousands of light years away. Only Chakotay, with his native knowledge of waking dreams, knows how to lead a counterattack. This may not have been the most unique use of time travel, but “Endgame” certainly was a satisfying one.The crew of the USS Voyager is attacked by a species who occupy a parallel reality in the human dreamstate. The start of the episode is heartbreaking, especially as we learn more about the losses Voyager has suffered. There’s a lot at stake here, not just the crew’s return home, but the possible end to the constant threat of Borg invasion. ”, which also employed time travel in its storytelling, yet “Endgame” carves its own path. This final chapter feels like an homage to the Star Trek: The Next Generation finale, “All Good Things. This pain weighs heavily on Admiral Janeway and it’s no wonder that she is adamant to change her past to give her crew a better future. The crew were stuck in the Delta Quadrant for over two decades, and they lost many of their friends along the way, while others have suffered a worse fate. “Endgame” begins with the celebration of Voyager’s 10th homecoming anniversary, but this is not a joyful time.
