*** This last one does make sense... Cardassia is repeatedly stated to be resource poor, especially after being forced to relinquish Bajor, so they likely didn't have the materials to build a full ship on Dreadnought's scale of complexity and power. This does make it a bit more odd that they would consume those resources on a one-shot weapon, however.

Changed line(s) 1 (click to see context) from:
''Voyager'' deals with a sentient Cardassian weapon that was reprogrammed by B'Elanna Torres and somehow wound up in the Delta Quadrant going after a civilian target.
to:
Ensign Wildman is in sickbay receiving a prenatal exam from the Doctor and Kes. She solicits their advice on some of the names she has considered for her child. The Doctor, whose extensive research for his own purposes has given him an encyclopedic knowledge of names across the galaxy, has no trouble [[AccentuateTheNegative finding something wrong]] with every one of Wildman's suggestions -- until Kes puts forth "Benaren", her father's name, which both of them quite like.
On the bridge, the crew is investigating some space wreckage from what appears to have been a small, unmanned vessel. Whatever destroyed it must have been impressively powerful to cut through its dense duritanium hull, so the crew brings aboard a piece for further analysis. It doesn't take long for Torres to identify the weapon signature... because she worked on the ship that fired it.
Torres and Chakotay brief the senior staff on what they call "Dreadnought", a state-of-the-art, AI-controlled intersystem missile designed by the Cardassians, capable of destroying a moon, that they sent against the Maquis. Despite its nearly impenetrable defenses, a faulty detonator prevented it from completing its mission, allowing the Maquis to capture and reprogram it. They sent it back against the Cardassians, targeting the fuel depot at Aschelan V, but it went missing, presumably abducted by the Caretaker since it is now in the Delta Quadrant.
Privately, however, Torres admits to Paris that Chakotay was covering for her. She was the one who sent out this weapon of mass destruction against the Cardassians, without Chakotay's consent. Now that Dreadnought has reappeared, her shame over that mistake, and the danger it now presents, [[ItsAllMyFault has returned in full force]].
''Voyager''deals quickly tracks down the elusive missile thanks to Torres' intimate knowledge of its tactics. They find to their horror that it has chosen an inhabited planet, Rakosa V, as its target. Janeway's first order of business is to warn them of the danger via subspace, but their leader, First Minister Kellan, isn't very receptive thanks to the slander the Kazon have been spreading around the sector. Not that it matters, since they are no match for Dreadnought. ''Voyager'' is their only hope of stopping it.
Dreadnought's AI nonchalantly welcomes Torres as she beams aboard to have a look. The missile confirms that it was caught in the Caretaker's tetryon beam, but believes it is still locked onto its original target of Aschelan V. With a few quick fixes to its navigation system and a reboot, the computer recalculates its location and powers down. Easy peasy.
Actually, not so easy. Soon after Torres leaves, Dreadnought resumes its course. It admits to lying to Torres, believing she has been co-opted by the Cardassians as part of a "Delta Quadrant deception". Janeway turns the ship's weapons against it, but to no effect, so Torres sneaks back onboard with some transporter {{Technobabble}}. Though Dreadnought gives her the usual polite greeting, she is clearly not welcome, as the AI warns her away from its systems with an electric shock. Undeterred, she immediately gets to work.
->'''Torres:''' I'm disappointed in you, Dreadnought. If I really was asentient Cardassian agent, you should have killed me with the first charge.
Though completely outmatched, the Rakosians send their defense fleet against the missile. With Voyager's help, they at least distract the computer long enough for Torres to gain access to some of its systems. She starts looking for a way to prematurely detonate the payload, which confuses the AI -- if she were being coerced by the Cardassians, why would she sacrifice her life for them?
Torres takes this as an opportunity to engage Dreadnought in a hypothetical exercise, hoping to reason it back to reality. [[FromBadToWorse The result is not what she hoped]]; rather than accept the truth of the situation, it concludes that Torres has betrayed the Maquis, and responds by shutting off life support.
As the missile begins its final approach on Rakosa V, Janeway prepares to use ''Voyager'' itself as a weaponthat was reprogrammed by B'Elanna of last resort against Dreadnought. She sets the self-destruct sequence and orders the crew to evacuate.
During her tinkering, Torresand somehow wound comes across an old Cardassian file that predates Dreadnought's capture by the Maquis. It turns out to be a backup file for the original operating system. When Torres activates it, the two programs end up fighting each other for control over the vessel. The Maquis AI eventually wins, but not before Torres gains access to the main reactor, where she begins to [[CuttingTheKnot break through the core's shielding]] with her phaser.
It is now merely a question of whether Torres can stay conscious in the thinning atmosphere long enough to finish the job. Dreadnought, powerless to stop her, feigns a change of heart about the Delta Quadrantgoing thing, but Torres is not an idiot.
->'''Torres:''' Who would have though, two years ago, aftera civilian target.all those weeks we spent together perfecting your program, that we'd end up out here trying to kill each other...
As the core shielding finally begins to dissolve, ''Voyager'' beams Torres back seconds before Dreadnought explodes. She makes it back, unconscious and slightly crispy, but alive. A relieved Janeway shuts down the self-destruct -- which was only one minute away from zero -- and cheerfully gets to work on bringing the crew's escape pods back aboard.
