- Quotes
Lieutenant Tom Paris: I don't see what's so bad about being you. You're good at your job, everybody likes you.
Ensign Harry Kim: Being likable is fine, but sometimes I wish I could be more bold, confident with women, more like you.
Lieutenant Tom Paris: Like me? You might want to reconsider that, Harry. There could be prison time involved. Actually, since I've been on Voyager, I've tried to be more like you.
Ensign Harry Kim: That'll be the day.

This is an interesting episode that reminds me of sirens as well as birds like the cuckoo (who lay eggs in OTHER birds' nests and when they hatch they dispossess the rest of the eggs). It is very interesting and very sneaky. Worth seeing.
