In the mess hall, Paris, Kim, Torres and Seska gossip and laugh about Kim's love life. Janeway notices and realizes that the two crews are finally started to unite. But then she's called away to the bridge to answer a distress call from a Sikarian ship. When Janeway hails the ship, however, the captain, Magistrate Gathoral Labin, say that they're not in distress. It's actually ''Voyager'' that is in distress. After beaming aboard and serving up some delicious appetizers, Gath invites the crew to enjoy themselves on his planet. Neelix confirms that the Sikarians are legendary for their hospitality, so Janeway accepts.

* AlienArtsAreAppreciated: Stories are of great value in Sikarian society, so Janeway offers to trade Voyager's entire library in exchange for some help getting home. When the respective leaders' negotiations break down, their underlings do it behind their backs anyway.

* DownerEnding: ''Voyager'' fails to use the trajectory to make any progress, and Janeway is badly shaken by the disobedience of her officers.

** Janeway bans B'Elanna from snooping, but this doesn't stop B'Elanna, Seska and Carey from discussing 'in theory' how the Sikarian technology might work.
* TheMainCharactersDoEverything: When Janeway is called to the bridge, Kim, Paris and Torres are all in the mess hall with her. When she arrives at the bridge, all our main characters have resumed their posts, apparently relieving whatever redshirts were on that shift at the moment.
* MistakenForExhibit: Harry sees Eudana playing what he assumes is a HarpOfFemininity. It's actually an atmospheric sensor that works via sound. That doesn't bother Harry much as he immediately deduces how it works and [[GeekyTurnOn they start bonding over that instead]].

* PlugNPlayTechnology: At first literally played straight -- the Sikarian device plugs into a console in Engineering despite being acquired only moments before, so the crew wouldn't have had time to construct an interface. However the trope is ultimately averted.

** On a planet which is a paradise, populated by a species with technology far in advance of the Federation, stories are the only thing Voyager has of value.

-->'''Carey:''' ''[offscreen]'' If that's the case, we'd need a bubble big enough for the ship. ''(OhCrap ReactionShot from Seska and Torres)'' Don't worry Lieutenant. I'm with you on this one. After all, it doesn't hurt to theorise.
