Also, destruction of the holodeck control panel disables safety protocols? Doesn't seem a very secure place to store all the important stuff.

618: '''Ashes to Ashes''' ''[[2000]] [[March 1]]''
(First watched 2009-06-29)  This is the kind of episode that Voyager usually would have a problem with due to its transient nature, and in this case is a problem because it doesn't acknowledge that it's a problem.  If she's been gone from the ship for 3 years but caught up to them in 6 months without even knowing where they were to begin with, the technology of her shuttle must be much beyond Voyager.  The Kobali's tech also must be beyond Voyager's since they don't have a problem reanimating a decomposing corpse and having most of its memories intact.  Yet despite this no mention is made of trying to figure out the the new high tech, and in fact after a cursory examination of the shuttle Tuvok thinks he'll have no problem defending Voyager from them.
There's also the simple fact that this is supposed to be a returning character who Harry was very close with in the early years, but who we've never seen on screen before.
That aside, the idea of a species that "procreates" by reanimating/transforming the dead of other species is an interesting one.

619: '''Child's Play''' ''[[2000]] [[March 8]]''
(First watched 2009-06-29)  So this is like a twisted version of the previous episode.  Last week someone had been half-integrated into a new culture, but it was enough that going back to their previous place was a Bad Idea.  This week someone was even MORE integrated into a new culture, but it was still heavily pushed that they should go back to where they had no memories of.  Of course in this case it turned out his folks had an ulterior motive so Voyager ends up snatching him back anyway.
Also Romo Lampkin.
