It's the worst episode of any Star Trek series. Period. It's boring and has no story. If you want to watch a whole episode of Neelix and a pouty little girl and her annoying holodeck friends then this is an episode for you. Otherwise just skip it. It does not add to Voyager's journey in any way so you can take it out of the series and nothing would be lost.
I was bored early on and I only continued to watch because I couldn't believe this was all there was to the episode. I was wrong.
I'm a huge fan of Scarlett Pomer so I really enjoyed this one.
To the reviewer who didn't know about the Delta Flyer, it was built in S5E3 when they had to get a probe the Mahlon were trying to steal.

I am blown away that some of you nerds think this is the worst episode of any Star Trek. I made an account just to write this but what the hell are you talking about, did you see the Voyager episode where Janeway and Paris turn into salamander aliens and mate?
Y'all really hate kids, huh? I remember reading the reviews of DS9 episodes that featured Molly O'Brien and they were just like, calling for the kid to die in order to make the show better.
I thought this episode was fine, the silly characters kept themselves in check and rarely overstayed their welcome, and we got to deal with the most unique crew member on this voyage.
To all the weird haters: Sorry this episode wasn't about a space battle or like a dilithium matrix being jettisoned.

I won't write much because it is barely worth my time. After a stellar beginning to Season Five, we get this junk. Neelix's relationship with that little girl is tiresome enough, but throw in the bad acting and those ridiculous characters on the holodeck, and it seems endless. Why do we have to take these diversions away from science fiction? Other than a shuttle crash, the whole thing is maudlin manipulation.
Seems like we get one of these 'for the kids' episodes per season. Very sappy and almost totally devoid of plot, it's a morality play around how to deal with danger/death. The young girl does a good job of acting, it's just not the kind of Trek story I want to watch.

- TriviaThis is the only appearance of Holodeck characters Flotter & Trevis, but the doll of Flotter is seen occasionally in future installments.
- GoofsWhen the Delta Flyer was just about out of time to be rescued by Voyager the computer said that the oxygen would be depleted in 2 minutes. Even if they couldn't get to the Delta Flyer in time the away team could've gotten into environmental suits to escape that particular danger in the cockpit of the Flyer.

Neelix: Coffee, anyone? Captain?
Capt. Kathryn Janeway: No thanks, I've had enough. One more cup and I'll jump to warp.
