    I see that you decided to fix the typo.

    :)

    I decided to leave it in, to keep things clean.

    i know a little of topic : but: how come jeri ryan is it a more highly rated actress: how come jennifer lien never did more? forgive me i am lazy to check the episode names but the one where jennifer lien portrays the warlord trapped in tess's body was pretty brilliant character play and probably one of the best directing jobs of the series (not the best directing but top 7 )

    it's
    True. I know I'm not one to judge grammar but that was like seeing spinach in someone's tooth and trying to ignore it. I couldn't.

    Whilst Jeri Ryan may not have been the pretties of women, this is compensated for, somewhat, by her acting talent. Much in the same way that, in ancient Egypt, Cleopatra is reputed to not have been so hot, by her contemporaries, but she could charm you out of your last buck and this made her appear much more attractive.

    Whereas Jennifer Lien was just so beautiful, so talented, so charming ... BUT ... her dependence on recreational drugs seems to have been something of an obstacle for her, even in those days. What's more, the show didn't seem to know what to do with Kes and without any meaningful input from Jennifer on it, attrition appears to have set in.

    Assimilation is much like sex by penis.

    Seven of Nine is a transition fantasy for men who want to move on to the wonder full world of gay, slowly.

    Yes. Jennifer has been screwing up badly for a while now and very publically, at that. We hope & pray that she'll come back to reality and start living Life, again. When she was, she was very loved and well-thought of. And you're right: Jennifer endowed Kes with a very delicate, almost ethereal beauty. She had every business being in pictures ...

    Two examples in my head popped up just now, both of which were super-forced:

    1. Early in Voyager, it's revealed that B'lanna had a pretty strong crush on Chakotay. One that lasted for all of one episode; nay, in one dream sequence.

    2. Chakotay/Seven late in the series.

    Both of them were from way out in left field. No foreshadowing, no hints, no natural development or clues whatsoever. Yes, we see it. No, there's no chemistry. Even in B'lanna's dream, there's no real emotion from her.

    Once you get a higher post count, they will let you edit your posts for typos.... No? You're a Lieutenant.

    There should be an edit button?

    You're funny.
    The dream wasn't about a crush. It was the alien discovering their deepest needs and exploiting them. Compare her vision to everyone else's. Did Kes want to see Tom practically burned to death and in pain? No...she saw what she saw because her deepest need was to be needed. Tom's deepest need was to finally tell his father what he thought of him.
    B'Elanna had been abandoned by her father and estranged from her mother. Her need was to love and be loved. The only reason she saw Chakotay was because he was the only person on the ship she had any kind of emotional connection with. He was an avatar. If he wasn't around it could just as easily have been Harry. This comes straight from Roxanne Dawson btw.

    While this is not one of my favorite episodes, these glimpses into the characters were great. I loved the conversation between B'Elanna and Janeway at the end

    TORRES: I'm surprised to see you here, Captain. Isn't this the day that you're usually in the holodeck with your novel?
    JANEWAY: I thought, after our recent experience, that I'd take a break from fantasy for a while.
    TORRES: I don't blame you. I think it had quite an impact on all of us. Do you think it's true? That the alien was reading our minds, creating images from our own experiences?
    JANEWAY: It seemed that way. He had uncanny ability to bring buried thoughts out into the open. Why?
    TORRES: Oh, it's just, I experienced something I'd rather not admit.
    JANEWAY: I know. Me too. But, in a way, maybe he did us all a favour. Maybe it's better to look those feelings in the eye than to keep them locked up inside.
    TORRES: I guess. I'll have to think about that. I have an early watch tomorrow, so I'd better turn in. Good night, Captain.
    JANEWAY: Good night, B'Elanna. Sweet dreams.
    TORRES: Thanks. You too.
