Seven of Nine begins a new method of data analysis that makes her craft a conspiracy theory that Janeway and Tuvok intentionally stranded Voyager in the Delta Quadrant. Later, a data-overloaded Seven of Nine starts spreading rumors of a mutiny and insurrection when the ship encounters an alien with technology that can catapult the ship light-years closer to home and cut years off their journey.

The Voyager crew enjoys leisure time in a holo-program created by Tom Paris and set in Fair Haven, an Irish coastal village of the early 20th century. Captain Janeway falls for a handsome holo-character designed specifically for her. But, a deadly neutrino wave approaching Voyager brings the festivities to a halt as this wave may prove more dangerous than they first imagined.
