What if Tuvix had survived?
- Thread starter Kilana2
- Start date
Lwaxana was just a woman of big appetites. Once she finished up one man it was time for the next.
That's why her daughter is so prissy.

Tuvix would never have survived.
Another couple of weeks and Janeway would have thrown him out the airlock.
If Kes didn't do it first.

The space mosquito that bit Janeway and Chuckles might have easily have got Tuvix instead of, or as well as Janeway and her XO, if all the players were in slightly different positions a month later in Resolutions.
Possible alternate Resolutions combinations...
Janeway + Tuvix.
Chacotay + Tuvix.
Janeway + Chakotay + Tuvix.
Tuvix by himself.
Lets be honest. If Tuvix had been the only person marooned on the Resolutions planet, would anyone have gone back for him? Would Kim have been a little bitch crying about how the ship is bullshit without Tuvix, and would any of them even considered for a second getting within 12 parsecs of a Vidiian mobile abattoir convoy?

Kim, feigns sadness unless it's his Surrogate mom or his male boo, Paris.
Janeway wouldn't leave him because of her whole leave no crew behind and besides her "buddy" Tuvok is in there. I air quote, because in Night there is no one she trusts more than Chakotay.
I wonder if that had anything to do with Prime Factors. (doubtful)And to the guy who said Janeway would throw Tuvix out of an airlock; Keep dreaming. :-) We would have been stuck with him.
There was an issue with replicator use being limited due to energy shortages - they couldn't just go to a Starfleet starbase and fuel up. There was a lot of talk of replicator rations and Janeway having to seriously restrict her coffee intake. Cooking their own food saved energy. Kes in the early years was in charge of growing fresh produce in the hydroponics bay, and they occasionally were seen gathering produce on planets too. They unfortunately couldn't always get food that actually tasted good though, and it seems like Neelix's cooking was awful, or at least his Talaxian palate didn't suit anybody else besides him.
Neelix has actually a cookbook out, I don´t know if it´s good. I would give it a try. And truth to be told, not every meal of Neelix was quite that bad. But Tuvix was obviously a genious as cook and pastry chef
Replicator rationing is about scarcity.
You could comfortably eat by replicator in your room every day and night.
However if you needed new boots, or you thought to splurge on the quality (grade?) of your replicated meals, or maybe start replicating a bottle of wine with every meal, then it was off to the mess hall to eat the free grub Neelix hands out to compensate for your deficit of rations.
Not exactly an eating disorder, but if some one had some habit or hobby that cut into their replicator ration budget for food, and they refused to eat what Neelix was cooking... Massive weight loss plus fainting, and eventually death.
Naomi thinks that Neelix's cooking is normal, and would have been in for some culture shock the day he left.

The only reason they are all so pissy about Neelix's food is they are spoiled 24th century brats who have been able to precisely design every single meal they ever ate, whether through replicator programming or access to any ingredients they wanted. Suddenly it's all root vegetables and some kind of sauce to make it go down, exactly what generations of the british isles grew up on. But it's not good enough, quelle horreur!
And that's an exaggeration, the food we did see was diverse. The need to bulk it out with the most abundant carb on offer, leola root, that's something any one cooking on a budget understands. But not our crew, no they look down their noses and make scathing comments though they could do no better themselves.

Yes, and yet I was emotional.
I mean Tuvok and neelix were boring that season. I toyed with the question if I'd miss them. yet, wasn't sure if I was entirely charmed by the tuvix guy. I fear he'd warrant a walk off the storyline plank.
As for Janeway, I was trying to wrap my head around that. She'd never consider sacrificing him to the vacuum of Space but she'll order him into oblivion to get her Vulcan back. :-)
Those actors really amped up the Star Fleet brat behavior those first seasons. I don't think I could like the Voyager crew if they continued to act like Beverly Hills brats in space. Janeway and her damn coffee episode. What a bitch. Lol. (When you missed as many episodes as I had that first watch, you don't get the whole picture )and I judged her until I saw her take the stick out of her butt for Chakotay in act two , then ask for it back in the final act :-)
Tuvix is proof that Neelix goes over board with the flavouring.
It's not that he's a better cook it's just that he can read a room and give people what they want... Oh?
Kes wanted him dead and the rest of the crew didn't care for him enough to stop her.

If he's so sure they are living inside him why doesn't he believe HE will be living inside them once they are separated?
Teacake is once again comparing Seven Minutes in Heaven to Gweneth Paltrow's severed head rattling around inside a hatbox.
Neelix's bad cooking is a common gag at least in the first couple of seasons.
I recently rewatched an episode where Neelix made Plomex soup for Tuvok, but decided it was too bland so he added a lot of peppers to it. Tuvok didn't like it but Neelix ate it and seemed to love it.
I think in part Neelix's bad cooking is because he had limited and not always the best ingredients to work with, but I think in part it's just that his idea of how things should taste were pretty different from the crew's.

You mean Plomeek soup?
Either way, Tuvix was considered the "godfather of cooking". But in the end he was split up nonetheless.
Tuvix reminds me of an old Robin Williams thing. He was riffing, and started on small boobs. "Put 'em together and make one good one." Or something like that.
