So with Tuvok's reluctance to become the old Tuvok, I was wondering if we had another Tuvix situation.  However, in this case he ended up volunteering to go back to how he was; murder avoided.

So at the end Tuvok seems especially unthankful.  Not even a "''Thank you, Mr. Neelix, for the time and effort expended to assist me during my difficulties.''"  But I guess it's understandable; beneath that stoic exterior he's probably quite embarrassed about the whole thing.

So they cut another three years travel time off.  Must be down to about 30 years now?

610: '''Pathfinder''' ''[[1999]] [[December 1]]''
(First watched 2009-06-25)  Episodes where Deanna Troi is a guest star and the regular cast of the series are mainly present as holograms [[Star Trek: Enterprise Episode 422|can be frickin' awful]], but this time it really worked.  Not having the real Voyager crew appear until the very end helps sell their isolation and the victory that the communication is.  Also not killing anyone off while having Riker smiling over everyone's shoulders helps.
I like how Barclay's representation of the Voyager crew slightly differs from the real one.  Not just in that they all adore him, but how for instance Chakotay and B'Elanna aren't wearing Starfleet uniforms but what passes for a Maquis look.
Barclay is still clearly an individual with issues, but even so it's clear he's advanced since [[Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 3|Hollow Pursuits]].  In that older episode he retreats to the holodeck because he's afraid of any real-world confrontation.  In this episode he definitely uses the holodeck as a surrogate friend and co-worker, he actually is using it in a productive way--and outside of the holodeck is willing to (nervously) champion and rebel for an idea he's having trouble selling to his superiors.
So their initial guess of where Voyager would currently be located is way off, since Voyager has gotten a big nudge or three since then.  On the one hand it seems difficult to think that Barclay would've had enough chances at guessing various other locations to actually get one close enough in time, but since we don't really have a good idea of how close they needed to be to the wormhole to send and receive a message it might be easier than it seems.  At least, enough to make it believable in fiction.
So along with the obvious TNG connection with Barclay and Troi, I notice Barclay also makes mention of DS9.
