When former ''Equinox'' crewmember Marla Gilmore is abducted from just outside Starfleet headquarters after accepting her sentence of a dishonourable discharge from Starfleet, she is forced to recreate her enhanced warp drive by Section 31, leaving her fate in the hands of the crew that spent the last two years making her feel isolated and alone.

* {{Foil}}: Witnessing the fake ''Equinox'' and their treatment of Marla encourages Janeway to be less willing to condemn the original ''Equinox'' crew for their actions, as there is a difference between a crew driven to desperate measures to survive an impossible situation and a group that cold-bloodedly decided to recreate a system that uses innocent creatures for fuel to deal with a potential future threat.

When a captain of a stranded vessel, thousands of light-years from home, makes a devil's bargain to save the rest of his crew from constant danger and endless desperation, that's worse. But when men with full bellies in warm offices decide to put a woman through her own personal hell just so she'll help you murder billions of innocent people and get away with it....

Despite the risks, when Janeway says that any Maquis who wants to stay behind just has to take one step forward, the entire group instead take a deliberate step ''back'' to affirm that they'll help find Marla.

!!''The Prodigal Daughter'' contains examples of:
*TheAtoner: Marla is clearly presented as wanting to be this and hampered by the lack of opportunities to do so.
*BackFromTheDead: In as much as a hologram can be considered ‘dead’, Janeway and the Doctor are able to reactivate the ''Equinox'' [=EMH=] to help them treat Tom Paris and Noah Lessing for serious injuries.
*BrokenPedestal: Janeway is naturally disturbed when she learns of the mere existence of Section 31, particularly when she realises that one of their associates is a respected Starfleet Judge.
*CrossOver: ''Voyager'' makes a stop at ''Deep Space 9'' and Kira and Bashir accompany them in their efforts to find Marla after Bashir tells Janeway about Section 31 (although only Bashir contributes to the resolution of the situation).
*EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: While ‘evil’ and ‘loved ones’ might be overstating the matter, Kilbourne notes that Sloan was respected in Section 31 and quite a few people aren’t happy that Bashir let him die so that he could save Odo.
*EvilCannotComprehendGood: Discussed when Janeway retrieves Section 31’s notes on her and is disturbed to find that they genuinely believed she wouldn’t come for any of the Equinox Five.
*{{Foil}}: Witnessing the fake ''Equinox'' and their treatment of Marla encourages Janeway to be less willing to condemn the original ''Equinox'' crew for their actions, as there is a difference between a crew driven to desperate measures to survive an impossible situation and a group that cold-bloodedly decided to recreate a system that uses innocent creatures for fuel to deal with a potential future threat.
*HeelRealization: Janeway in particular has one when she is confronted with the way she and the rest of the senior staff basically ignored the ''Equinox'' survivors, to the extent that Section 31 captured Marla Gilmore to try and recreate her work and assumed that nobody would look for her.
*HoistByYourOwnPetard: Section 31’s agent in the Starfleet Justice Department, who arranged for Marla to receive her discharge from the fleet, is unable to have Marla transferred to a psychiatric hospital as Janeway and Bashir each observe that Marla currently isn’t a member of Starfleet, meaning he has no legal authority to take her.

That is far worse than anything Rudy Ransom could have ever done.”
*RebuiltPedestal: Where Noah Lessing in particular always had a low opinion of Janeway, seeing how far she’s willing to go to rescue Marla helps him accept her as a captain.
*RedemptionEqualsDeath: Marla at least considers this, but other characters either explicitly stop her from doing so or decide to spare her.
*RuleOfSymbolism: In her final confrontation with the fake Ransom, Marla demands his captain’s pips as her way of honouring the original Ransom’s memory.
*SanitySlippage: Marla practically has a breakdown after she is tortured and manipulated by the Section 31 operatives, to the extent that the crew have to call in Lessing to help them talk her down after she sets the warp core to overload and screams at B’Elanna and Seven to leave her to die.
*ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules: Janeway immediately rejects even the idea of getting a Sovereign-class ship in ‘exchange’ for returning Marla Gilmore to Section 31.
*SherlockScan: Marla is able to do some research to identify three psychiatrists who vanished some time ago and have the right reputation and appearance to be the fake ''Equinox'' crew, allowing for relatively minor plastic surgery.
*ShipTease: There are hints that Janeway and Chakotay have more-than-professional feelings for each other, but it never goes deeper than what was shown in the original series.
*VisionaryVillain: Kilbourne and his operatives all justify their actions in the name of ensuring that Romulus can’t threaten the Federation in the future.
*WhatYouAreInTheDark: While Marla feels that she failed this test when she not only went along with what happened on the ''Equinox'' but also rebuilt the enhanced warp drive for Section 31, Janeway counters with her new understanding that events on the ''Equinox'' were exceptional circumstances and chooses to focus on how long Marla held out against torture specifically designed to break her in the second case.
*WideEyedIdealist: Janeway is particularly disturbed at the existence of Section 31 as it goes against her own vision of Starfleet.
