![]() ![]() ![]() In sickbay, The Doctor suggests that a mind meld between the patient and a family member to bring Tuvok's repressed memory to the conscious mind may fix the problem. As he stares at the sensor display of the nebula, Tuvok experiences another flashback, and once again the little girl slips from his youthful grasp and falls to her death from the cliff. ![]() But, of course, Voyager is in the Delta Quadrant, nowhere near Klingon space, so his remark puzzles Janeway and the other officers present. B'Elanna Torres that, due to being close to Klingon space, Voyager conduct a tachyon sweep of the nebula to reveal any cloaked ships that could be responsible for the symptoms. In engineering, Ensign Harry Kim explains that his sensor sweeps haven't turned up anything that would affect Tuvok or Voyager. Tuvok approves of this "wise precaution". The Doctor releases Tuvok, but first gives him a neurocortical monitor to record his brain patterns and to alert sickbay in case the symptoms recur. The Doctor offers several possible explanations, including a hallucination or repressed memory of some sort. Though the episode seemed real, he does not recall it having actually happened. Tuvok, now conscious, relates his vision of the girl hanging from the cliff. In a state of extreme distress, Tuvok stumbles into Voyager's sickbay, where Kes is on duty, and collapses on the floor. En route, Tuvok experiences a flashback of himself as a child the boy holds the hand of a terrified girl hanging from a cliff but he is unable to hold on to her, so she plummets to her death. He confusedly admits that he is feeling dizzy and disoriented, and his request to report to sickbay is granted. The bridge officers subsequently notice his behavior. Even though an unaware Janeway issues him an order related to the nebula, Tuvok does not respond. Once the ship arrives at its temporary destination, the anomaly (which Kim describes as a class 17 nebula) is displayed on the viewscreen but, as the crew discuss the anomaly, Tuvok seems disoriented and his hand quivers. Neelix and the bridge officers lengthily and with some enthusiasm discuss how they will store and use the sirillium after they have gathered it. We have detected a gaseous anomaly that contains sirillium, a highly combustible and versatile energy source. An audio call from Captain Janeway summons the pair to the bridge. Neelix quickly extinguishes the blaze, which Tuvok suggests may have been caused by a thermal surge due to Engineering making adjustments to the plasma conduits, in order to accommodate a new energy source. Eventually, Tuvok gingerly samples the beverage and, to Neelix's delight, he finds the drink to be "impressive." After heading into the kitchen with the intention of serving seasoned Porakan eggs for Tuvok's breakfast, Neelix begins explaining the method of the food preparation, a Talaxian mealtime tradition, but the Vulcan is unwilling to hear about the effort put into preparing the eggs, and an unexpected fire suddenly ruins them. In the USS Voyager's mess hall, Neelix is trying to tempt a reluctant Lieutenant Tuvok into sampling a new juice blend that Neelix has concocted. ![]()
